## Summary

The procurement process involves NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT), which operates within the National Health Service. The organisation is seeking to contract for the supply of keyrings used in their Donor Recognition Scheme, in the context of the goods sector, particularly in information and promotional products. The tender is currently active and is exercising an open procurement method, with a deadline for submissions set for 19 December 2016. Contracts will start on 13 March 2017 and run until 12 March 2019, with the initial published date of this opportunity being 29 November 2016. The delivery will be required in the North East of England, and the total contract value is £50,000.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the promotional products industry. Companies specialising in manufacturing or supplying promotional items, especially those with experience in healthcare or charity sectors, would be well-positioned to compete. Being involved in this project not only allows businesses to contribute to a meaningful cause by supporting donor recognition efforts but also offers the potential for future engagements with NHSBT and similar organisations.

## Notice

NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) is part of the National Health Service (NHS) and is responsible for the strategic planning, management and supply of donated blood in England, tissue products in England and North Wales and organs for transplant throughout the UK. All donations of blood components are made by voluntary, unremunerated donors. In recognition of their contribution to helping save lives, donors receive a token award at certain milestone donations.

The Brand Communications department is responsible for the purchase and continuity of supply of donor recognition scheme keyrings. We are looking to appoint a company to supply these keyrings.
