Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure
2 lots · all with a published value · evaluation weights differ by lotEvery one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £176,640,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.
Lot #1Extension Sets and Intravenous AccessoriesRenewalceiling above
An IV extension set is a single-use medical device consisting of tubing and connectors in various lengths. It is designed to extend the reach of a standard intravenous (IV) administration set when the original tubing length is insufficient for clinical needs.
These extension sets may be configured as single-lumen or multi-lumen and can include optional adjuncts such as stopcocks, anti-siphon valves, and back-check valves to support safe and efficient drug delivery. Some models are compatible with NRFit connectors for enhanced safety in neuraxial and regional anaesthesia applications.
TIVA IV extension sets are commonly used in Total Intravenous Anaesthesia (TIVA) procedures, allowing for the simultaneous administration of multiple anaesthetic agents while maintaining drug separation and minimizing the risk of cross-contamination.
Lot #2Invasive Pressure Monitoring and Accessories.Renewalceiling above
A collection of devices that includes the necessary tubing and other items, e.g., connectors, stopcock(s), clamps, filters, and monitor cables, used as an external connection for invasive blood pressure measurement. This set will interface, either directly or from an intermediate stopcock, between the applied invasive catheter and the measuring transducer, and then connect via monitor cables to the patient monitor. It will have physical characteristics appropriate for preserving, to the extent possible, the waveform and fidelity of the measured pressure.

How this buyer will score bids.
The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
| Lot | Quality | Price | Social value | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Extension Sets and Intravenous Accessories | 60% | 30% | 10% | |
| 2 · Invasive Pressure Monitoring and Accessories. | 60% | 30% | 10% |
- Price carries 30 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 3 points.
- “Intravenous Connection and Pressure Monitoring TN” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
