Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is currently managing a tender process titled "Provisions" for the procurement of grocery provisions. This initiative is classified under the goods category and aims to supply NHS Scotland Health Boards and Special Health Boards, with delivery locations spread throughout the region. The contract, valued at £1,000,000 and originally signed on 10th January 2022, is active for a duration of 120 days. The procurement method is a single supplier framework, and this stage highlights the opportunity for suppliers to engage with one of the largest public healthcare bodies in Scotland.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in food supply and logistics, particularly those with the capability to meet the demands of the healthcare sector during the ongoing recovery from Covid-19. Companies with experience in supplying large-scale contracts for NHS or other health-related organisations would be well-suited to compete for this provision contract. Engaging in this process could enable suppliers to expand their footprint within the public sector and establish long-term relationships with NHS Scotland and its associated health boards.
