Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, is planning a procurement process for bespoke orthotic footwear and lower limb orthoses, as well as fixed and adhoc Orthotist services for various health boards in Wales. The procurement is in the planning stage and aims to issue contracts for a period of three years, with an option for a two-year extension. The procurement is classified under "Medical consumables" in the orthopaedic footwear category, and is valued at approximately £9.6 million over five years. The tender is expected to invite future bids by 29 January 2024, primarily targeting the UK region.

This upcoming tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in orthopaedic and medical consumable goods to expand their reach across Wales's health boards. Suppliers that can deliver a range of products including footwear, insoles, and orthopaedic fabrics, as well as clinical Orthotist services, are ideally positioned to compete. Additionally, businesses with capabilities in manufacturing bespoke orthopaedic goods or providing clinical orthotic services will find numerous opportunities to grow by serving multiple health boards. The involvement in a long-term framework provides stability and a continuous stream of potential projects, fostering business growth for suppliers willing to fulfil these specialised requirements.
