What is being bought

Published requirement description

NHS Supply Chain intends to launch a National Framework Agreement for the provision of the following types of equipment General / Universal Operating Tables, Specialist Spinal Tables, Mobile Interventional Radiology Tables and all Related Accessories and Services.

It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be in the region of £20,000,000 in the first year of this Framework Agreement, however this is approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the Framework Agreement. The estimated value over the total Framework Agreement term (including any extension options) is anticipated to be in the region of £80,000,000.

CPV: Examination tables · Installation services of medical and surgical equipment · Medical equipments · Medical furniture · Miscellaneous medical devices and products · Operating tables · Operating theatre devices and instruments · X-ray table

    Applicants should refer to II.2 of this Contract Notice for further details in respect of appointment to the Framework Agreement. The term of contracts formed under the Framework Agreement may continue beyond the end of the term of the Framework Agreement itself. 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 initiatives. NHS Supply Chain will share savings information in order to assist its customers with making informed procurement decisions.

    The Framework Agreement will be between SCCL (acting as the management function of The NHS Supply Chain) and the Applicant, however 1) SCCL; or, 2) any of the organisations described at Clause 1.9,Schedule 1 of the Framework Agreement (Attachment 4a) will be able to enter into a direct contract with the Applicant for any of the Goods and/or Services available under the Framework. Contracts placed under the Framework Agreement through the Direct Route of Supply, by parties other than SCCL, are between the relevant party and the Applicant and SCCL is not a party to those contracts. Such contracts may arise after a mini competition process and Applicants should note that only SCCL will be entitled to reopen competition under the Framework.

    Electronic ordering will be used and electronic invoicing will be accepted and electronic payment will be used. For the avoidance of doubt, and notw…

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Operating and Mobile Interventional Radiology Tables, Related…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 12 suppliers, not a single contract.

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