The agreement involves multiple suppliers, including Becton Dickinson Dispensing UK Ltd, Ingenica Solutions Ltd, and Genesis Automation (UK) Ltd, among others. The contract, valued at £50,000,000, covers a wide geographical area, with services applicable throughout the UK. Initiated as a tender, the process has now reached the contract award stage and includes provisions such as a 12-month extension due to unforeseen circumstances impacting the procurement timeline. This framework agreement allows any associated public body to benefit from improved inventory and point of care costing systems over a substantial period, specifically for 2160 days.

Small to medium enterprises and large corporations alike can gain substantial benefits by engaging with this framework, as it facilitates growth through extended service provision across the healthcare sector in the UK.
