Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency (NHS National Services Scotland) is conducting a tender process for a national framework for "Chilled Goods". This procurement, valued at approximately £14,000,000, falls within the food, beverages, tobacco and related products category and is aimed at serving NHS Boards and Special Boards across Scotland. Currently in the planning stage, with the Invitation to Tender (ITT) scheduled for publication on 20th May 2021, the framework will span three years, including the potential for two extensions of six months each.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the food supply sector, particularly those offering chilled products such as butters, cheeses, salads, and prepared meals. SMEs with relevant certifications and capabilities to fulfil health-related food standards are encouraged to compete, although larger suppliers who can demonstrate capacity and compliance will also be vital participants. Given the framework's regional applicability across all of Scotland's NHS Boards, successful tenderers could establish long-term relationships that contribute to sustained business growth.
