## Summary

NHS Supply Chain has established a non-exclusive framework agreement titled "Extension Sets and Lines" for the supply of medical devices including micro, narrow, and wide bore extension sets. This procurement falls under the goods category for devices and instruments for transfusion and infusion. The contract period runs from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2023, with an anticipated value ranging from £40,000,000 to £60,000,000 over its term. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 15 October 2018.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) engaged in the medical supply industry. Successful suppliers can expect to supply their products across various regions of the UK, including London, the North West, and the South East. Businesses that specialise in intravenous devices and related healthcare products would be well-positioned to compete for this contract and contribute to the NHS Supply Chain’s needs.

## Notice

NHS Supply Chain seeks to establish a non-exclusive framework agreement for supply to NHS Supply Chain depots via the Stock /Blue Diamond routes and to the NHS Supply Chain customer base via the E-Direct Routes for the supply of extension sets and lines including micro, narrow and wide bore sets. Extension sets are used to deliver intravenous fluids and medication. Extension sets can be used with a syringe pump, for providing an access point for injection by syringe, to extend a giving set, to complete the connection from a fluid or blood warmer to the patient. It is anticipated that in the first 24 months of the framework agreement the value of purchases will be in the region of 20 000 000 GBP to 30 000 000 GBP. For the full 48 months term (if extended) the anticipated value is between 40 000 000 GBP and 60 000 000 GBP. However these figures are approximate only. The figures for the total estimated value are based on that initial expenditure and include a forecast for growth.
