## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is inviting bids for the procurement of E-cigarette kits for its QuitReady Stop Smoking Service. This tender, valued at up to £50,000 per annum, is categorised under 'Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables' with specific references to tobacco goods. The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 2nd August 2018. The delivery of the kits is intended for the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom, and the initial contract period begins on 25th August 2018, lasting for 12 months with a potential extension of another year.

This opportunity presents significant prospects for businesses that specialise in the supply of electronic smoking products, particularly those that can provide high-quality E-cigarette kits suitable for the QuitReady programme.

Companies capable of meeting the unique requirements of this health-focused initiative will find this procurement a valuable chance to expand their reach within the public sector.

## Notice

Leicestershire County Council's QuitReady stop smoking service is looking to procure E-cigarette kits to form part of the treatment plan for service users as part of their 12 week treatment programme. These will only be given to service users who are signed up to the QuitReady stop smoking programme and who are engaged with the service for 12 weeks or more and are receiving behavioural intervention with weekly contact from a stop smoking advisor. E-Cigarettes would be an adjunct to pharmacotherapy and will form part of the wider nicotine containing product offer. E-Cigarettes will only be provided to persons over the age of 18 years old. The QuitReady stop smoking programme intends to support service users quit smoking entirely. The Council is looking to place an initial order for 500 kits and intends to purchase further quantities as required, subject to demand. The contract value is estimated to be worth up to PS50,000.00 per annum, and an initial 12 month contract is offered, with the option to extend by up to a further 12 months.
