## Summary

The procurement process involves the Common Services Agency, more commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), seeking to supply single-use non-sterile disposable gowns to meet urgent demands in the Scottish health and social care sector due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This tender is classified under the medical consumables industry and follows a limited procurement method, directly awarding the contract without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 9 April 2020, with an overall value of £1,652,000, aimed at delivery locations in Scotland.
