This procurement falls within the medical gases industry and will be primarily executed in England. The framework, with an estimated total value of £13,000,000, encompasses the supply of nitric oxide gas, delivery devices, and maintenance services for a duration of 24 months, with the potential for two additional 12-month extensions. The award notice was published on 27th May 2020, following an open procurement process initiated in February 2020 that closed on 11th March 2020. This framework agreement presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in the supply of medical gases and associated delivery systems, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies capable of providing complete systems, including storage and monitoring devices for nitric oxide therapy, would be well-suited to compete. Furthermore, businesses interested in contracting with NHS bodies and local authorities within England should consider exploring this framework further to expand their market presence and foster growth. ## Notice NHS London Procurement Partnership (hosted by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust) has established an unranked national framework agreement for Nitric Oxide Therapy.
