Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by Public Health Wales NHS Trust involves a direct award contract to supply contraceptive and sexual health medical resources, including various types of condoms, lube sachets, and HIV self-test kits. This contract is part of the public authority's initiative to continue services under a direct award procurement method due to the current NHS SC framework being unsuitable for the service's needs. The awarded supplier is Pasante Healthcare Limited, an SME based in Brighton, UK. The procurement stage of this contract moved into the 'Award' phase on 13th May 2025, with the contract period commencing on 23rd May 2025 and potentially extending to 23rd January 2026 if necessary. The project is classified under the goods category and involves a total contract value of approximately £96,000, including VAT.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for growth-focused enterprises, particularly those specialising in healthcare supplies, to engage with the public sector and demonstrate their capability to fulfil critical service needs efficiently. SMEs, especially those offering innovative or cost-effective solutions in medical and health-related products, will find this contract a well-suited opportunity given its scope and the provision for contractual extensions based on service requirements changes. Companies with experience or strategic interest in the health and wellness sector can leverage such contracts to establish or enhance their presence in public procurement markets, aligning with national health objectives.

Procurement Information

This direct award is to extend the provision from Pasante. The current NHS SC framework 2020/S 012-023209 is unsuitable for the services needs. 2020/S 012-023209 was due to be replaced on 29th September 2024 but was extended until 31st March 2025. An interim agreement was put in place ref 2425-039-STA-PHW between PHW and Pasante to cover this period until the new NHS SC Framework was in place. 2020/S 012-023209 was then extended again until 30th June 2025 and this contract is to cover the service until the new expiry date. This STA is 4 months plus an optional 4 month extension. The initial 4 months will allow time for the new framework to be in place and for a contract under it to be created providing it meets the needs of the service. The extension period of 4 months will only be exercised if a) the new NHS SC framework is unsuitable and the requirement will then be tendered, or b) the new NHS SC framework is delayed further in which case the requirement will be tendered.
