Currently in the planning stage, the engagement will conclude on 23 February 2018. A market engagement event is scheduled for 13 November 2017 at NHS Basildon and Brentwood CCG in Basildon, Essex. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of medical nutritional products, equipment, and nursing services. Companies equipped to provide enteral feeding solutions, along with support and maintenance services, would be particularly well-suited to compete.

The Participating Organisations are the South and Mid Essex Clinical Commissioning Groups of Thurrock CCG, Basildon & Brentwood CCG, Castle Point and Rochford CCG, Southend CCG and Basildon CCG (the CGGs) and Basildon and Thurrock University Hospitals, Southend University Hospital and Mid Essex Hospitals Trust - (the Hospitals) and North East London Foundation Trust who wish to appoint a supplier of enteral feeds, associated equipment and product related nursing services for patients that are registered with a South and Mid Essex GP or are inpatient in the hospitals.
