## Summary

The procurement process led by Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust involved the awarding of a contract for the provision of office supplies. The title of the procurement is "Office Supplies - Bates," which falls under the office supplies industry category (CPV code 30192000). This is a completed tender, concluded using a selective procurement method as part of a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract awarded on 4th September 2024, with a value of £780,000, will run from 9th September 2024 to 8th September 2026, servicing the hospital’s location in Norwich, United Kingdom (postal code NR4 7UY). Key dates included the tender closing on 3rd September 2024 and the award being published on 4th September 2024.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the supply of office materials to expand their market reach and secure stable, long-term revenue streams. Companies that specialise in providing high-quality office supplies, particularly those with experience in servicing large organisations like NHS trusts, would be well-suited to compete for such tenders. However, it's important to note that this specific contract does not target SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting that larger, more established suppliers, like Bates Office Services Ltd, may have a competitive edge. Engaging in such contracts can enhance a supplier’s portfolio and open doors to further contracts through framework agreements.
