This open procedure aims to supply pharmacies across Nottingham with injecting equipment and is set to close its tender period on 24th June 2019. The contract is valued at £225,000 and is scheduled to commence on 1st October 2019, lasting until 30th September 2020. The delivery addresses for the supplies will be in the East Midlands region. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the healthcare and pharmaceuticals sector, especially those specialising in medical supplies and harm reduction services. Companies capable of providing high-quality injecting equipment, both in pre-packed kits and as individual items, would be well-suited to compete. Given the focus on public health and community welfare, businesses that are accustomed to working with local authorities or have experience in social services may also find this contract particularly relevant for their growth strategies. ## Notice Nottingham City Council is looking to re-design and commission a new needle exchange scheme in pharmacies across Nottingham City. As part of this, there is a requirement to commission a service to supply pharmacies with the equipment to distribute. The Nottingham Crime and Drugs Partnership currently commissions four Pharmacy Providers to deliver needle exchange across eleven branches in Nottingham City, on behalf of Public Health, within Nottingham City Council. Following the re-design and commissioning of the wider substance misuse treatment system, it is anticipated that this figure will increase. The Provider will be required to supply a range of high-quality injecting equipment to pharmacies delivering needle exchanges across Nottingham City in both pre-packed needle exchange packs, and individually to form a 'pick and mix' model. Needle exchange programmes are an excellent method of delivering a range of vital harm reduction interventions to injecting drug users and are an integral part of the drug treatment system in Nottingham City. The provision of sterile injecting equipment can significantly reduce the wide range of risks that are associated with injecting drug use which include; blood-borne viruses (BBV) and other physical health issues (ulcers, abscesses, DVT, etc.) ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b612e5d6-307e-4700-ba9b-90757bf80f72 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 May 2019 | | Submission deadline | 24 Jun 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Sep 2019 - 30 Sep 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £225,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NOTTINGHAM CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | NOTTINGHAM | | Post town | Nottingham | | Postcode | NG2 3NG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | | ITL 3 | TLF14 Nottingham | | Local authority | Nottingham | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Nottingham East | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 33 - Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products ### Codes - 33000000 - Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products ## Release History - 30 May 2019 at 15:08 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b612e5d6-307e-4700-ba9b-90757bf80f72 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b612e5d6-307e-4700-ba9b-90757bf80f72 30th May 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=82f7fb8f-c17b-e911-80f7-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
