## Summary

The procurement process detailed involves the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), situated in Manchester, UK, aiming to acquire Oxford Handbooks and Textbooks (eBooks) for the NHS in England. This falls under the publications industry category and was conducted through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, which started on 1 April 2024 and ends on 30 June 2025, has already progressed to the award stage, with Oxford University Press being the successful supplier. The total contract value awarded is £682,032 GBP, highlighting a significant investment into educational resources.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses involved in the provision of publications, particularly in a healthcare context, to expand their reach into the public sector by offering specialised content that meets the needs of large-scale clients like the NHS. Despite its completion, the method employed suggests recurrent purchasing needs under this framework agreement, making it crucial for suitable businesses to remain informed about similar opportunities. Companies with established recognition in providing bespoke educational materials would have been well-positioned to compete, although this particular call-off from a framework did not cater to SMEs or VCSEs. This procurement evidences the ongoing demand for specialised services supporting public health education enhancements.
