UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire Support and Facilities Services Limited intends to procure a collection and delivery service for a diabetic camera used by Chesterfield Royal Hospital. The work is a specialist courier service for medical equipment, rather than the supply of cameras or clinical services. The listed service is associated with Chesterfield Royal Hospital, and delivery is within the United Kingdom; no specific delivery town or route is identified. The planned procurement has one lot and is described as a service. The buyer is Derbyshire Support and Facilities Services Limited, the organisation responsible for the procurement. This requirement may suit operators able to collect and transport sensitive or specialist equipment reliably for a hospital, including courier businesses with suitable handling and logistical arrangements.

This process is at the planning stage: the buyer has set out an intention to procure, but has not invited tenders. It expects to publish a further notice by 1 December 2026. The buyer has scheduled preliminary market engagement, with an expression of interest in the upcoming tender due by 31 October 2026; this is an engagement step, not a bid deadline. The estimated value is £300,000 excluding VAT (£360,000 including VAT). The single lot is expected to run from 30 April 2027 to 29 April 2030, with a possible extension to 29 April 2032. A dynamic purchasing system is planned, and the lot is marked as suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria or detailed participation requirements are stated here.

The requirement is most relevant to courier and logistics suppliers able to provide dependable collection and delivery of a diabetic camera for a hospital. Suppliers with experience moving specialist or potentially sensitive equipment, robust collection and tracking processes, and the capacity to sustain a multi-year service are likely to be best placed to prepare. The single-lot structure points to one service requirement rather than separately specified geographic or operational packages. Voluntary, community and social enterprises are identified as suitable, so providers in those sectors may also find the planned procurement relevant. The buyer has not set out particular accreditations, technical standards, staffing qualifications or evaluation priorities at this planning stage; suppliers should use the planned market engagement to understand the service requirement as it develops. No invitation to bid has been issued.
