UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service, on behalf of Health and Social Care Northern Ireland, is exploring the supply and delivery of medical infusion equipment and consumables. The proposed scope covers infusion pumps, syringe pumps, ambulatory pumps, subcutaneous pumps, administration sets, gravity sets and associated equipment. This is primarily a goods requirement involving devices and instruments for transfusion and infusion, infusion supplies and administration sets. The equipment and supplies are intended for use across Health and Social Care Northern Ireland services, with the buying organisation based in Belfast. The procurement is planned as one grouping rather than separate lots, so suppliers should consider whether they can provide the full range of equipment, sets and associated products.

This process is at the planning stage and is a preliminary market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. The buyer intends to use responses to understand market capability and inform a possible future procurement. Interested suppliers are asked to complete the preliminary market engagement questionnaire through the secure eTendersNI messaging area, using Resource ID/CfT reference 6328467. The questionnaire submission date has been extended to 28 August 2026. The planned contract period is 1 May 2027 to 30 April 2031. The procurement is expected to be below the applicable threshold and will cover one lot. No contract value or award criteria have been set out at this stage.

The engagement will suit manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist medical-device suppliers able to provide infusion and syringe pumping equipment alongside compatible administration and gravity sets. Suppliers with a broad product range may be particularly well placed because the proposed requirement combines pumps, consumables and associated equipment in one lot. Relevant preparation includes being able to describe product capability, available models, compatibility between devices and sets, supply capacity, delivery arrangements and support for Health and Social Care Northern Ireland services. The buyer is specifically seeking information about what the market can supply, so businesses should be ready to explain their portfolio and operating capability through the questionnaire when the procurement progresses. The published information does not set accreditation requirements.
