Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), initiated a limited procurement process for the maintenance of Modula machines, a service falling under the repair and maintenance services category. The contract, signed on 1st March 2021, involved one lot related to maintenance and replacement parts for Modula vertical automated picking machines. The procurement method was an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, aiming specifically at Modula Storage Solutions Ltd, the only supplier capable of fulfilling the contract due to technical exclusivity. This tender process has been completed.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in repair and maintenance services, particularly those with expertise in automated machine systems. Firms capable of providing parts and technical support for Modula machines would find it especially advantageous to engage in future tenders. Given the exclusive nature of this supply chain, businesses with established relationships in this niche market, or those capable of gaining technical certification from Modula, could benefit from a competitive edge in forthcoming procurement opportunities.
