## Summary

The NWSSP, a public healthcare organisation based in Cardiff, UK, has recently completed a tender process to purchase Enzyme Indicator Technology and Equipment for cleaning Aseptic Suites. The tender was awarded without prior publication due to Protak Scientific owning the intellectual property. The procurement falls under the "Health" industry category, with a focus on goods. The main procurement stage was the award, with the contract signed on 8th November 2022.

This procurement opportunity presents a chance for businesses specialising in healthcare technology and equipment to engage with NWSSP. Companies offering Enzyme Indicator technology and related solutions would be well-suited to compete. The location of delivery for the contracted goods is specified as the Pharmacy CIVAS @ IP5 within the UKL2 region, providing a clear focus for businesses interested in supplying these products. The procurement method employed was a limited process, tailored to suit the specific needs and requirements of the buying organisation.

## Notice

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP) is seeking to develop a new approach towards the cleaning of Aseptic Suites and their Clean Rooms. NWSSP has identified the requirement to purchase Enzyme Indicator technology to enable the measurement of the "Kill Rate" within an Aseptic Suite that is also compatible using iHP gassing methods.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Enzyme Indicators contain an enzyme that has a high tolerance to high temperatures and oxidising agents, and after a gassing cycle has been conducted, the rate at which the enzyme has denatured is measured, thus proving a measure of the Kill Rate, and therefore the cleanliness of the Aseptic Suite. Enzyme Indicators will be used as part of a new gassing method for cleaning the Aseptic Medicines Manufacturing suite at the CIVAS@IP5 facility. Enzyme Indicators are required to verify that the gassing cycle, using ionised Hydrogen Peroxide, has been successful in killing microorganisms. In addition, Enzyme Indicators provide a result within minutes, resulting in far less downtime for the Aseptic Suite. Furthermore, Enzyme Indicators provide a rate of denaturing on a logarithmic scale, allowing for Quality Assurance levels to be set for each grade of Clean Room.
