## Summary

The NHS Castle Point & Rochford Clinical Commissioning Group, acting on behalf of the Mid and South Essex CCGs, has awarded a contract for the supply of hydration kits to care homes located in mid and south Essex. The contract, which amounts to £28,938 (inclusive of VAT), was awarded to Spearmark Health Ltd through a direct procurement method—specifically a single tender action due to a sub-threshold contract. The contract started on 22nd March 2021 and will run for a month, with the contract closing date being 21st April 2021.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses that specialise in medical supplies or products, particularly those that supply goods to healthcare providers. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) will be well-suited to compete, especially those that can provide innovative hydration solutions tailored for care home settings. This contract could serve as a stepping stone for local suppliers keen to expand their footprint in the healthcare market within the East of England.
