## Summary

The Common Services Agency, also known as Public Services Delivery Scotland, is seeking suppliers for a framework covering women’s health products for NHS Scotland bodies, joint integration boards and Scottish hospices. Products include speculums, pessaries in several shapes and materials, cervical ripening balloons and cervical biopsy punches. Supply will be predominantly through the National Distribution Site, with deliveries serving NHS health boards and related organisations across Scotland. The opportunity is divided into 12 product lots, so manufacturers and distributors can focus on the product lines they supply. The framework is intended for use by a wide range of Scotland’s public health organisations and hospices.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure for a multi-supplier framework. The tender deadline was 16 November 2026 at 10:00 UTC. The framework is planned to run for four years, with no renewal. The estimated overall value is £3.5 million, based on historical distribution-site spend; the buyer states there is no guarantee that anticipated spend will be achieved. Individual annual estimates are given for each lot, ranging from £4,752 for pessary incontinence dishes to £270,444 for dual cervical ripening balloons with stylet. Evaluation for every lot weights price at 70%, service at 20% and sustainability at 10%. Up to five suppliers may be appointed to each lot, without ranking. Electronic catalogues are required and variants are not allowed.

This is most relevant to manufacturers and specialist medical-device distributors with established women’s health product ranges covering one or more of the specified items. Suppliers need the capacity to serve NHS Scotland organisations and hospices, with products predominantly delivered through the National Distribution Site. The breadth of the framework offers scope to compete for individual product categories rather than supplying the full range, while appointment of multiple suppliers per lot provides for more than one framework supplier. Offers will be assessed mainly on price, with service and sustainability also contributing, so bidders should be able to demonstrate credible service delivery and sustainable supply arrangements. Successful suppliers must set out their existing community benefits and proposals, and support the buyer’s community-benefit process through contract and supplier management.
