Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process titled "IV Fluids MSC & MIS" under the goods category, specifically focusing on intravenous fluids. Located in Poole, the trust initiated this tender through a selective procurement method, calling off from a framework agreement, to extend their existing contract for NHS Intravenous Fluids among other products. The award stage is active, with the contract extending from 1st December 2025 to 31st May 2026. The framework agreement, valued at approximately £201,349.77, has been awarded to Baxter Healthcare Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Norfolk.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for large-scale businesses in the healthcare supply sector, particularly those specialising in medical fluids and related goods. As the procurement was conducted selectively, businesses currently part of or aiming to join relevant framework agreements may find similar opportunities valuable. While SMEs and VCSEs may not be suitable for this specific procurement due to its scale and the competitive nature of framework-based selections, established suppliers in the medical and healthcare industry can consider expanding their reach and strengthening partnerships with NHS facilities through such contracts.
