This procurement is classified within the medical equipment and personal care products industry and is based in Dorset and Somerset. The tender is currently in the planning stage with a total value of £1,550,000 and the end date for submissions is set for 28 June 2021. The procurement method employed is selective, under a restricted procedure, which allows for a more tailored approach to vendor selection. The contracting authority anticipates that the involvement of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) may enhance competition and innovation in service delivery. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the medical and orthotic sectors, particularly those with the capability to supply bespoke and standard orthotic solutions. Companies offering compatible electronic ordering systems with SystmOne, along with a strong logistics framework for timely deliveries, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Additionally, firms that can provide value-added services such as training and support to healthcare professionals could differentiate themselves in this competitive bidding process. The Trust’s proactive approach to involving SMEs also means that smaller firms may find a less daunting competitive landscape compared to larger enterprises. ## Notice Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust is looking for a supplier(s) to provide Orthotics Products with the best possible quality and pricing, ensuring products are delivered with prompt, reliable delivery times, and reducing the number of faulty orthotic devices needing to be returned.
