Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust is planning to issue a tender for the provision of a glaucoma device, specifically a minimally invasive procedure device targeting three key resistance points in glaucoma treatment. This tender, classified under medical consumables (CPV 33140000), is currently in the planning stage.
