This initiative is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 1st September 2025. The procurement process covers the goods category with an overarching framework agreement in place and is governed by Welsh devolved regulations, specifically applicable to the public authority of central government. The procurement is above the threshold and is set to commence its contract period on 1st March 2026, while catering to the UKL region in the United Kingdom. The contract is scheduled to run until 28th February 2029, with a possible extension until 28th March 2030.

Companies that provide a diverse range of food service items in various materials and styles could significantly benefit from engaging with this procurement process. It is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), providing an excellent avenue for business growth and expansion within the catering industry. The planned framework agreement and renewal options offer stability and potential long-term collaboration with NHS Wales Health Boards, making this a strategic opportunity for businesses looking to establish or enhance their market presence in the health sector. The involvement of a public authority also ensures a robust procurement method, fostering reliable business opportunities for capable suppliers in disposable goods provision.
