The procurement falls under the services category, specifically for health and social care in Northern Ireland. The process is currently at the planning stage, with a targeted implementation date in early Q2 2025. Interested economic operators need to express their interest by January 17, 2024, for a supplier engagement event scheduled for February 12, 2024. This tender provides an opportunity for businesses involved in supplying adult and paediatric enteral feeds, special nutritional products, dietetic products, and other medical consumables. Companies with experience in delivering health-related services and medical devices would be well-suited to compete. The procurement method is through a planned tender, allowing for engagement with market operators to understand service needs and market capacity before the formal tendering process commences. ## Notice Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland (HSCNI) has identified scope for improvement to the current arrangements for ordering and supply of adult and paediatric enteral feeds and the equipment required for their administration.
