## Summary

The NHS Supply Chain is seeking suppliers for a framework agreement to provide patient dry wipes within the healthcare sector, specifically catering to NHS operations across various regions in the United Kingdom. This open procurement process, initiated on 22nd October 2019, involves an estimated initial expenditure of £6 million in the first year and a total anticipated value of around £24 million over the entire framework term, which spans a minimum of 24 months with potential extensions of up to 48 months. The tender application period closes on 14th November 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare products, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can meet the requirements for supplies suitable for use in healthcare environments. Companies that produce goods such as wipes, medical supplies, and hygiene products would be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract, taking advantage of the extensive potential market within the NHS framework.

## Notice

The framework agreement is for the supply of patient dry wipes. All products must be suitable for use in the healthcare and healthcare related environment, typically within the NHS sector. NHS Supply Chain seeks to establish a non-exclusive framework agreement for supply to NHS Supply Chain depots via the Stock/Blue Diamond routes and to NHS Supply Chain customer base via the E-Direct Routes. Precise quantities are unknown. It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be 6 000 000 GBP (cost ex VAT) in the first year of this framework agreement. The estimated value over the total framework agreement term is expected to be in the region of 24 000 000 GBP (cost ex VAT) however these values are approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the framework agreement. The framework agreement will have an initial term of 24 months with an option to extend incrementally for up to a total period of 48 months.
