Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Supply Chain is looking to establish a non-exclusive framework agreement for the supply of audiological implantable devices, associated accessories, consumables, maintenance, and repair. This procurement process falls under the category of surgical implants and hearing aids, with an anticipated initial expenditure of £43 million in the first year and a total estimated value of £185 million. The tender period for this contract was active until 16 December 2019, with the contract scheduled to commence on 22 July 2020 and run until 21 July 2024, covering a wide range of delivery locations across the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs) in the medical device industry. Companies specialising in the manufacture of audiological devices and related products will find this framework particularly relevant, allowing them to engage with the NHS and expand their offerings to a broad customer base within the healthcare sector. With potential for additional savings through competitive pricing and bulk buy initiatives, there is ample opportunity for businesses to establish fruitful partnerships in this sector.
