Publisher note: The following certification will be a requirement of the upcoming tender exercise and Applicants may be required to include evidence of this with their tender submission. ISO9001:2015 accredited by the UKAS (or equivalent) to cover all segments of the Applicant’s and the product’s supply chain. This should include, but not be limited to, manufacturing, storage and distribution. Further information in respect of certification requirements will be set out in the notice for the forthcoming procurement. If such certificates are not in the name of the Applicant then the Applicant must supply a copy of agreements setting out the authority and responsibilities of all parties in the supply chain. The purpose of this notice is to draw attention to a procurement that NHS Supply Chain intends to commence during the subsequent 12 months. The invitation to tender will be the subject of a separate notice and it is that notice to which potential suppliers will need to respond at the appropriate time. The Framework Agreement between NHS Supply Chain and successful suppliers will reserve the right to purchase the same or similar supplies and/or services from suppliers not appointed to the Framework Agreement at its sole discretion. NHS Supply Chain expects to provide successful suppliers with the opportunity to offer additional savings to customers through the provision of discounted pricing, value added offerings and commitment/bulk buy initiatives. Framework Agreement will be between NHS Supply Chain and the Supplier, however 1) NHS Supply Chain, 2) any NHS Trust; 3) any other NHS entity; 4) any government department, agency or other statutory body and/or 5) any private sector entity active in the UK healthcare sector will be able to enter into a direct contract with the Supplier for any of the supplies and/or services under the Framework. The NHS adopted PPN 06/20 (taking account of Social Value in the award of Government Contracts) from April 2022. As such all NHS SC Contracts going out to market after this date will include Social Value weighting. Therefore the future contract for Neuromodulation Devices & Associated Products 2023 will include some qualitative evaluation questions on Social Value with a minimum weighting of 10% towards the award. We would like to engage with the market in the pre-tender phase to communicate what social value is but also to understand what the market may be capable of delivering. As part of its pre-tender strategy, NHS Supply Chain would also like to engage with suppliers of these products via a Request for Information (RFI). If you would like to complete the RFI in respect of the products which are the subject of this procurement then please follow the below instructions; Portal Dashboard SQs Open to All Suppliers Select the link SQ_179 RFI Neuromodulation Devices Consumables and Associated Products 2023 (Project Code_1009) Select ‘my response’ tab, Complete Questionnaire and submit. Candidates wishing to complete the RFI must first register their expression of interest on Jaggaer via the following URL: https://nhssupplychain.app.jaggaer.com/. If you are not already registered, complete the registration process first to allow access to express interest in this opportunity. Applicants will then have until the 27th April 27/04/22 to complete and return the RFI document, which includes some sustainability questions aligned to Social Value. Candidates are encouraged to download the Supplier Handbook located within the eProcurement portal by following the 'Supplier Help centre' link within the Useful Links section of the Dashboard.
