Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), which seeks suppliers for the provision of Peritoneal Dialysis fluids, consumables, and dialysis machines. This contract, awarded through a limited procurement method without prior publication, forms part of a framework agreement for goods intended for delivery within Scotland's healthcare system. The procurement was finalised on 9th November 2021, with the awarded suppliers being Fresenius Medical Care (UK) Limited and Baxter Healthcare Ltd. This framework is crucial for ensuring seamless supply to hospitals and patients' homes across the region.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses engaged in the healthcare supply chain, particularly those specialising in medical products, consumables, and supportive machine technologies.
