Summary of the contracting process

NHS Fife procured the printing and associated handling of its Patient Admission Record, a printed healthcare form used in the patient admission process. The requirement covered 50,000 A4 portrait documents, each 22 pages, printed in four-colour process on white uncoated 90gsm offset paper. Finishing included folding, collating, wire stitching, trimming and drilling two holes on the left-hand side. The records had to be packed in boxes of 500, with 100 boxes in total. The requirement also covered storage at the supplier and ad hoc delivery when NHS Fife called off stock in box quantities. This is an updated existing document, assigned an NHS Fife management code. The buyer is NHS Fife, based at Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline.

The procurement has been awarded to J Thomson Colour Printers, following a process that received three bids. The awarded value is £10,000. The contract is recorded as active and was signed on 10 December 2026. The requirement was for one specified print product, supplied in fixed box quantities, with stock held by the supplier for ad hoc call-off and delivery. No award date or contract duration is stated in the available process details. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are recorded, so the basis on which the bids were assessed cannot be described.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible supplier would need commercial printing capacity for multi-page A4 forms in four-colour process, together with finishing capability for folding, collating, wire stitching, trimming and two-hole drilling. The work also calls for reliable packaging in boxes of 500, storage of finished stock, and the ability to fulfil ad hoc deliveries in those quantities. Suppliers need to manage an existing, updated NHS form and keep stock available for call-off rather than deliver the entire quantity at once. The award shows that NHS Fife attracted competition for a defined print-and-fulfilment requirement; three bids were received. Experience coordinating production, inventory and responsive delivery would therefore be relevant to competing for this buyer’s comparable requirement when it returns to market.
