Summary of the contracting process

The NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) has completed a procurement process titled "NSSCOVID-19 -316 Clinical Waste Resilience", aimed at enhancing clinical waste collection services during the Covid-19 pandemic. This process was initiated under a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition due to extreme urgency, with approval in accordance with Scottish procurement regulations. The contract, valued at £821,130, was signed on 1 April 2021, and delivery is expected at NHS Scotland facilities located in the UK.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in waste management and related services, particularly those experienced in clinical waste handling.
