## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is conducting a procurement process for E-cigarettes as part of its 'QuitReady' Stop Smoking Service, aimed at supporting individuals engaged in a 12-week treatment programme. The direct award process for this contract, valued at £12,000, was completed on 25th September 2020, with contract execution starting on 1st October 2020 and running until 28th February 2021. The procurement falls under the industry categories of electrical machinery, health and social work services, and tobacco-related products, with delivery taking place in England.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of electrical equipment and health-related products, particularly those with a focus on smoke cessation aids. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the direct award nature of this procurement, which may favour agile suppliers capable of fulfilling specific health service needs. Businesses that can offer innovative solutions aligned with public health initiatives would be especially well-suited to compete for future contracts arising from similar initiatives.

## 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 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
