    This is a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice. Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service requires the supply of Dry Ice, without which they are unable to transport life saving blood components, tissues, cells and medicinal products. There are currently no other means available to SNBTS of transporting these items without the use of Dry Ice. A full open procurement process was conducted to identify the most economically advantageous tender, no compliant bids were received. To ensure supply of this critical product, SNBTS are entering into an agreement with the current supplier for continued deliveries of Dry Ice.
