Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, widely recognised as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is initiating a procurement process for Pulse Oximetry Consumables. This planned tender aims to supply and deliver various medical consumables, including both disposable and reusable sensors. Categorised under medical consumables, the goods will be distributed to NHS entities across the United Kingdom (UKM region). Currently in the planning stage, parties interested will need to pay attention to future opportunities arising, with key dates including a future notice set for 17th June 2026. The procurement method is initiated as a tender, promising significant value mainly in the goods category.
