The contract, if awarded, is expected to commence on 1st May 2021 and could last for up to four years, divided into an initial two-year period with an extension option available. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in medical supplies and services, particularly those capable of providing training, maintenance, and repair for medical gas systems. Companies that engage in the supply of medical gases and associated consumables would be well-suited to compete. Furthermore, suppliers must express interest in the specific lots they wish to participate in, making it essential for businesses to assess their capabilities to align with the requirements outlined by HTE. ## Notice HealthTrust Europe are seeking to establish a framework agreement for the supply and rental of medical gases, cylinders, associated consumables and devices.

In addition to the above, the successful tenderer will be expected to provide services associated to each lot, including training, maintenance and repair. Suppliers should express interest to the lots they wish to participate in within the quality envelope, where a supplier has not confirmed they would be requested to clarify/be omitted. HTE proposes to enter into the Framework Agreement for a maximum period of 4 years with the successful Tenderer (Successful Tenderer), being an initial 2 years period and the option to extend by 24 months after the initial period. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8285070c-cd51-4ad6-b5db-bdb45589510f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Jan 2021 | | Submission deadline | 22 Feb 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Apr 2021 - 1 May 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HEALTHTRUST EUROPE LLP (HTE) ACTING AS AGENT FOR THE UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS OF COVENTRY AND WARWICKSHIRE NHS TRUST ("UHCW") | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B15 1NU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Edgbaston | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Edgbaston | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 24 - Chemical products ### Codes - 24111500 - Medical gases ## Release History - 20 Jan 2021 at 16:13 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8285070c-cd51-4ad6-b5db-bdb45589510f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8285070c-cd51-4ad6-b5db-bdb45589510f 20th January 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
