Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP) is seeking a supplier for the GPhC Practice Assessment requirement, identified as medical equipment, pharmaceuticals and personal care products (CPV 33000000). The procurement is categorised as a goods purchase. The requirement is associated with Parc Nantgarw, postcode CF15 7QZ, and the listed delivery coverage includes the United Kingdom, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The title indicates that the purchase concerns a practice assessment connected with the General Pharmaceutical Council, although the detailed scope is set out in the request for quotation and terms and conditions. NWSSP is the buying organisation and is procuring the requirement on behalf of NHS Wales shared services.

The process has reached tender: NWSSP invited suppliers to submit offers through an open procedure. Suppliers were required to accept the terms and conditions by email and submit their quotation through the MultiQuote platform; email quotations were not accepted. The quotation deadline was 3 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 4 September 2026 at 12:00 to 4 September 2026 at 23:59, so the planned delivery or performance window is one day. Suppliers must attach a clear method statement and a proforma invoice to their quotation. The tender information refers suppliers to the request for quotation and terms and conditions for the requirement and contractual detail. The procurement is stated to be suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized suppliers able to provide a GPhC-related practice assessment within a one-day delivery or performance window. A suitable bidder will need to understand the assessment requirement, explain clearly how it would deliver the work or goods, and provide a method statement alongside a proforma invoice. Suppliers must be able to review and accept the stated terms and conditions and submit their offer through the MultiQuote platform rather than by email. The broad delivery coverage may suit businesses with UK-wide, European or international fulfilment capability, depending on the detailed requirement. Businesses already serving NHS or pharmaceutical-sector customers may find the subject matter familiar, but the published information does not state specific accreditations, staffing qualifications or prior-experience thresholds.
