OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), has completed a procurement process for the supply of Tympanic Thermometer Thermoscan Probe Covers. This award was made through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The tender, titled "Probe Covers for use with Pro 4000 & Pro 6000 Tympanic Thermometers", was specifically for entities established under the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 and was aimed at delivering goods to the National Distribution Centre located in Larkhall. The contract was signed on April 1, 2019, with a value of £704,000 and involved only one supplier, Welch Allyn UK LTD. The procurement process is complete with the award documentation available for review.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare consumables, particularly those that supply specific equipment or parts compatible with existing NHS medical devices. Companies that produce or distribute goods specifically designed for use with Pro 4000 and Pro 6000 Tympanic Thermometers would particularly benefit from this contracting process, given the limited competition due to technical specifications that restrict sourcing to a single provider. Suppliers with the capability to meet such technical criteria could leverage this opportunity to expand their business within the NHS framework.
