## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (T&T) is currently in the planning stage of a tender titled "Lateral Flow Dynamic Purchasing System Process Webinar," which is categorised under diagnostic kits. The procurement aims to explore the role of Lateral Flow Devices (LFDs) in combating COVID-19 and will utilise a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for suppliers to compete through mini competitions. The engagement end date for interested parties is set for 6th April 2022. The value of the process is estimated at £8,004,000,000 and is intended for delivery within the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations involved in the healthcare and diagnostics field, particularly those with expertise in rapid testing solutions. Businesses that qualify for the DPS will be well-positioned to engage in competitive mini-competitions for future contracts, making it a prime opportunity for SMEs and larger entities alike to expand their operations in the public health sector. Companies that can demonstrate innovation in diagnostic technologies and supply chain reliability would stand to gain the most from this procurement process.

## Notice

LFDs are one of the tools being used to help us to detect and fight COVID-19 and the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is a procurement tool that allows those suppliers who qualify onto it to subsequently compete for contracts through mini-competitions. The webinar attached details the LFD DPS procurement process and subsequent DPS mini competitions. to view, please download webinar from the notes & attachments section.
