Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency (NHS National Services Scotland), based in Edinburgh, is overseeing the procurement process for a framework titled "Chilled Goods," which encompasses a wide range of refrigerated products for NHS Scotland health boards. This tender, which is in the award stage, has an estimated total value of £14 million and was initiated through an open procurement method. The contract duration is set for three years, with an option for two six-month extensions. Key dates include the tender's end date on 15th July 2021 and the contract signing on 21st September 2021.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for suppliers of food products, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in the chilled goods sector. Companies that produce butters, cheeses, cold meats, yoghurts, and various salad fillings would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, given that the framework agreement allows participation from multiple suppliers, there is a potential for collaborative ventures and increased market access for businesses looking to expand their footprint in the healthcare sector in Scotland.
