Summary of the contracting process

NHS Supply Chain, operated by Supply Chain Coordination Ltd (SCCL), is planning a procurement process for a framework agreement to supply Pressure Infusers and Associated Products, including Disposable Single Patient Use Pressure Infusers and Reusable Pressure Infusers. This procurement, classified under the CPV code 33194000 for transfusion and infusion devices, is in the planning stage and involves various delivery locations across the UK. The anticipated initial expenditure is estimated to be between £930,000 and £1,100,000 for the first year, with a total estimated value of approximately £4,400,000 over four years (2 + 2 term). The procurement process encompasses multiple lots and outlines requirements for ISO 9001:2015 certification, public and product liability insurance, and conformity to UK Medical Device Regulations or equivalent European standards. Key deadlines and additional information about supplier engagement and certification prerequisites are expected to be provided in the forthcoming contract notice, with future notices anticipated around 14 March 2025.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of medical devices, particularly those specializing in infusion and transfusion technologies, to expand their market presence within the UK healthcare sector. Suppliers with robust quality assurance systems, public and product liability insurance, and relevant ISO certifications will be well-positioned to compete for this tender. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and innovative companies are encouraged to participate, with compliance to social value metrics, carbon reduction plans, and modern slavery assessments being crucial for progression. Those meeting these rigorous standards can significantly enhance their business growth and establish valuable contracts with a wide range of NHS entities and potentially other public and private healthcare organisations in the UK.
