Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "NP57026 Disposable Medical Pulp and Associated Products" contract was managed by NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), the central purchasing body handling procurement for Scottish health services. Located in Edinburgh, the tender was in the Health category, and the process followed an open procurement method. The tender included various lots such as Urinal Systems, Bed Pan Systems, and Absorbent Powder, with delivery across the UK region. The procurement stage reached completion with contracts signed in May 2026 after the tender period closed on 3rd March 2026.
