UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service is exploring the market on behalf of Health and Social Care Northern Ireland for the supply and delivery of infusion pumps, syringe pumps, ambulatory pumps, subcutaneous pumps, administration sets, gravity sets and associated equipment. This is a medical equipment and infusion supplies requirement, including devices and instruments for transfusion and infusion and administration sets. The procurement covers one lot. The buying organisation is based in Belfast, and the equipment is intended for use across Health and Social Care Northern Ireland. The requirement is for goods rather than services or works. Suppliers whose business includes medical equipment, infusion devices, administration sets or related clinical equipment should consider taking part in the market engagement to help shape the buyer’s understanding of available products and supply capability.

This process is at the planning stage and is a preliminary market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. The buyer intends to use the responses to understand the market and its capabilities before deciding on a future procurement. Interested suppliers are expected to complete the preliminary market engagement questionnaire through the secure messaging area of the eTendersNI opportunity, using Resource ID or CfT reference 6328467. The latest stated submission date is 4 September 2026; earlier submission dates were extended. The requirement is below the relevant threshold and is planned as one lot. The anticipated contract period is from 1 May 2027 to 30 April 2031. No contract value or award evaluation criteria have been set out at this stage, and participation in the engagement does not commit the buyer to a future tender.

This exercise is relevant to manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist healthcare suppliers that can provide infusion pumps, syringe pumps, ambulatory and subcutaneous pumps, administration sets, gravity sets and associated equipment. It will suit businesses able to explain their product range, supply routes, technical capability and capacity to support Health and Social Care Northern Ireland. Suppliers can use the questionnaire to describe the products and services they could make available, identify market features and raise practical points before any future competition is designed. The scope spans both reusable medical devices and associated consumables, so businesses may be relevant as individual suppliers or as potential partners where a broader range is needed. There are no stated accreditation or experience requirements yet; suppliers should prepare clear evidence of product suitability, regulatory compliance and reliable healthcare supply capability.
