- Why no open competition
- The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
- Published justification
The Health Board currently holds a contract for a wide range of stationery such as X-Ray Request Forms, Microbiology Specimen Bag and prescription forms. The contract delivers a desktop service for a large numbers of areas within the Health Board and the current provider holds the stationary within their warehouse for the wards and departments to call off in small batches due to space constraints.
Due to the volume of increased workload since the Covid-19 pandemic and competing priorities for patient care and treatment, the Health Board have been unable to fully scope a strategy delivery for print services which may include additional items and potentially expanded requirements. In order to complete a full specification scoping exercise within the organisation and issue a tender to the market for a long term contract, the Health Board wishes to award an interim six month contract to ensure continuity of supply and service. There will be a six month extension option included with this contract.
Based on the above, the Health Board is applying a 10 day standstill period prior to awarding this contract.
- Review procedure
NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership on behalf of Cardiff and Vale University Local Health Board will allow a minimum 10 calendar day standstill period between notifying the award decision and awarding the contract.
Publisher note: The value in this notice is a ceiling figure based on the potential for cost uplifts within any awarded contract due to the increase in raw materials for example, paper. (WA Ref:119596)
