This procurement falls within the healthcare services industry and is based in Doncaster, Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement stage is currently active, with a deadline for submissions set for 12 January 2021. The estimated contract value is £180,000, and the contract period is slated to run from 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022. The tender follows an open procurement method, allowing all eligible vendors to participate. This opportunity presents an ideal growth avenue for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in healthcare logistics, particularly in the delivery and disposal of medical waste services. Providers with experience in managing sharps, compliance with health and safety regulations, and a focus on customer service will find this contract particularly suitable. Engaging in this tender can enable businesses to expand their service portfolio, enhance community health initiatives, and secure long-term contracts with public health authorities. ## Notice An increasing number of patients, such as diabetics or those who are required to inject blood thinners during the post-operative period, are able to self-medicate without the need for a healthcare practitioner to administer injections. Primary and Secondary Care providers; NHS Doncaster Clinical Commissioning Group; and Doncaster Council each have statutory duties to ensure the health, safety and well-being of Doncaster residents and self-medicating patients by enabling these individuals to safely manage their condition(s) at home. Patients who self-inject must: - Be trained in the correct assembly of sharps bins; - Know how to use the temporary closure of sharps bins (for safety whilst in use); - Know how to lock the sharps bin once full (for safety prior to collection); - Know how to access new needles and medication when needed; - Know the timetable for the collection and delivery of their sharps bin which is usually on a no less than quarterly basis but patients requiring a temporary, one-off, or alternative collection frequency will need to know who to contact to make a change / service request; - Know how to arrange for a new sharps bin to be delivered; and - Have their waste collected safely and efficiently in a timely fashion as detailed in their collection schedule. The Service Provider is required to provide timely and cost effective sharps bin delivery, collection and disposal services from nominated patient homes in full compliance with all applicable health and safety, waste and transport legislation.
