Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process pertains to the acquisition of "Wound Closure Products" by National Service Scotland - National Procurement, based in Edinburgh, UK. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically aimed at providing essential products to NHS Scotland across various locations. Currently in the contract modification stage, the process involves a modification to an existing contract to ensure continued supply during the demands of the Covid-19 pandemic. The related contract period, which commenced on December 1, 2021, is set to end on November 30, 2022, with a total value of £21 million.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the healthcare supplies sector, particularly those specialising in wound care products such as sutures, skin adhesives, and staplers.
