The requirement covers gynaecological medical devices including speculums; pessary cubes, incontinence dishes, donuts, Gellhorns, PVC and silicone rings, Shaatz pessaries, acetal copolymer and silicone shelf pessaries; dual cervical ripening balloons with stylets; and cervical rotating biopsy punches. Products will be supplied predominantly through the National Distribution Service. The framework is intended for all NHS Scotland health boards, special health boards, other NHS organisations and joint integration boards in Scotland, as well as Scottish hospices. Delivery can therefore involve any or all locations served by these organisations across Scotland. The main category is gynaecological medical supplies, classified under CPV 33641200. This is a prior-information planning notice: the buyer has stated an intention to procure, and the process has not yet reached an invitation to tender. A full contract notice is planned for October 2026, with the specification and mandatory requirements to be set out then; the indicative future notice date is 6 October 2026. The intended arrangement is a four-year framework, with a current estimated value of £3.5 million based on annual spend of £875,000. It is divided into 12 product lots, with approximate lot values ranging from £4,752 for pessary incontinence dishes to £270,444 for dual cervical ripening balloons with stylets. Each lot is expected to be awarded on a multi-supplier, unranked basis, with up to five suppliers per lot. The estimate may be updated in the full notice. This planning exercise is relevant to manufacturers, specialist medical-device suppliers and distributors able to provide one or more of the 12 listed women’s health product ranges to NHS Scotland and Scottish hospices. Suppliers can prepare by identifying the lots that match their product portfolio, production or sourcing capacity, and ability to support predominantly central distribution through the National Distribution Service. The multi-supplier structure and separate product lots could suit businesses specialising in particular pessary types, cervical devices or examination products, rather than requiring a single supplier to cover the entire range. Firms should review their technical product information, supply continuity arrangements and NHS distribution capability before the full contract notice is issued, when the detailed specification and mandatory requirements are expected to be published. ## Notice Framework agreement for the provision of Womens Health Products (Speculums, Pessaries and Cervical Medical Devices) ('Products') on behalf of all entities constituted pursuant to the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978, (i.e. all NHS Scotland Health Boards, Special Health Boards and the Authority or other NHS Organisations) and all joint integration boards established under the Public Bodies (joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014.
