## Description
Supply Chain Coordination Limited (“NHS Supply Chain”) intends to procure a National Framework Agreement for the supply of Medical Examination Gloves including but not limited to:
6N Examination Gloves: 6N Nitrile Exam Gloves
Examination Gloves Specialised
Following further review of the category strategy, market landscape, and customer requirements, it has been concluded that Medical Examination Gloves and Surgical Gloves will be procured through separate frameworks.
Whilst the original PME notice (2025/S 000-052117) indicated an intention to combine the two categories into a single framework, subsequent analysis identified that they operate as distinct markets with differing customer needs, supply bases, technical specifications, and procurement considerations. In addition, the categories are subject to different commercial models, pricing mechanisms, market dynamics, and contract management requirements.
Maintaining separate frameworks will enable a more tailored procurement approach for each category, support effective category management, and better align with customer and market needs. This revised approach is expected to enhance supplier engagement, promote competition, and provide greater flexibility to respond to future market developments and evolving customer demand.
We are looking at ways to review the procurement strategy and simplify commercials in terms of agreements and pricing points, rationalise ranges for stocked product. This framework will continue to incorporate sustainability requirements for third party social audits across Medical Examination Gloves.
NHS Supply Chain is assessing the most appropriate procurement approach, and the tendering procedures that may be used for future contract awards.
The Framework Agreement will be entered into between the Authority and individual Supplier(s). The Authority may purchase goods under the Framework Agreement, which will be made available for purchase by:
• any NHS Trust;
• any other NHS entity;
• any government department, agency or other statutory body (for the avoidance of doubt including local authorities); and/or
• any private sector entity active in the UK healthcare sector.
The award of a place on the Framework Agreement does not guarantee any commitment by the Authority or its customers to place any orders under the Framework Agreement.
