## Summary

The British Red Cross is currently seeking a qualified supplier through an open tender for its "International Medical Services" project. This procurement falls under the medical consumables category and is relevant to businesses in the medical and healthcare industry. The tender period will close on 13 July 2018, and the contract is expected to commence on 31 August 2018, extending until 1 September 2021. Interested parties should note that services are to be provided in various locations, including the UK and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in medical services, psychological support, vaccinations, and anti-malarial treatments to expand their portfolio and grow. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, particularly those with experience in delivering medical services to personnel in remote or challenging environments. Engaging in this contract could enhance their visibility and reputation within the healthcare sector while contributing to crucial support for the British Red Cross staff operating overseas.

## Notice

The British Red Cross wishes to establish a Contract with a suitably experienced, qualified and resourced Supplier for the provision of medical and psychological services for staff and seconded delegates travelling overseas. The successful Tenderer must be able to provide specialist medical services to staff and seconded delegates working overseas enabling the British Red Cross Society to meet their duty of care effectively according to the needs of staff working in remote areas overseas. The purpose of this contract is to provide British Red Cross staff and seconded delegates with appropriate medical and psychological services including provision of vaccinations and anti-malarial prevention and treatment. The British Red Cross has decided to go out to market as the long term contractor ceased to exist in August 2017 and since then the organisation has used multiple suppliers to deliver the services required by employees travelling and working overseas.
