## Summary

NHS England recently completed a procurement process for the printing of user guides related to ventilators and critical care equipment, valued at £23,640. This service falls within the printed materials industry category (CPV code: 22100000) and was conducted through a direct procurement method, described as a single tender action. The contract was delivered to several locations across the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West. The contract period was from 1 June 2020 to 30 August 2020, with the tender period concluding on 27 May 2020.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in printed materials, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in producing printed guides and user manuals for medical equipment, especially in a timely and compliant manner, would be well-positioned to compete for similar tenders in the future. Engaging with NHS England and other healthcare organisations can lead to further growth and collaboration in the evolving public sector market.
