Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by NHS Supply Chain is for "Vascular Therapy and Associated Products", which encompasses items such as compression hosiery and intermittent pneumatic compression therapy products. This tender is currently in the planning stage, with an engagement end date of 8 March 2019.

The procurement method involves initiating tenders with a focus on market engagement to identify suitable suppliers in the UK and beyond.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), that supply medical equipment and garments. Companies that specialise in vascular therapy products, compression therapy solutions, or associated medical equipment would be particularly advantageous in this competitive environment. The pre-tender engagement strategy includes a Request for Information (RFI), allowing businesses to demonstrate their capabilities and receive guidance on the procurement process. Engaging in this procurement could thus foster valuable business growth and partnerships.
