What is being bought

Published requirement description

NHS Lanarkshire Health Board, a statutory body constituted pursuant to the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 (“the Board”), wishes to put in place a framework agreement for the supply of Microfibre Cleaning Systems (“the Goods”). A Specification detailing the mandatory requirements is provided in Appendix 1- Specification.

The scope of equipment to be provided via the framework will include bur is not limited to trollies, mop, launderable mop heads, wet floor signs, and associated ancillaries. The microfibre systems will be used across both large acute settings and small community sites.

The following additional authorities are also parties to this framework and eligible to create call-offs from it:

NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde

While the above authority is party to this framework, no commitment is given to any level of uptake by this authority.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Microfibre Cleaning Systems” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
