## Summary

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, is undertaking an open procedure tender for the Supply and Maintenance of Stores Handling Equipment across Wales. As of 11th October 2024, the procurement is in the award stage for up to twelve suppliers, involving training and maintenance services for four regional Supply Chain Warehouses located in Denbigh, Bridgend, Picketston, and Newport (NDC). The framework contract, which involves a mix of lease/rental and maintenance-only arrangements, was divided into four geographical lots with up to three suppliers per lot. Key deadlines included the tender submission date on 30th October 2024.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in material handling equipment, maintenance services, and associated training. Companies capable of providing reliable, high-quality equipment and comprehensive maintenance programs would be well-suited to compete. The tiered ranking system ensures an organised selection process, providing additional chances for lower-ranked suppliers if the first choice is unavailable. By allowing bids for specific lots, even smaller firms can strategically target areas where their services would be most competitive, facilitating regional growth and supply chain efficiency improvements.

This framework will encompass not only the supply of the equipment but also associated training and maintenance services for the Denbigh, Bridgend, Picketston, and Newport (NDC) Regional Warehouses. The framework will involve a combination of lease/rental and maintenance-only arrangements. The specification includes the current inventory of equipment, both leased and owned. However, Supply Chain cannot guarantee a minimum or maximum number of call-offs under this contract. The contract will be divided into four (4) geographical lots, each corresponding to a regional warehouse: Denbigh, Bridgend, Picketston, and Newport (NDC).

The awarding process will follow a sequential approach, with the first-ranked supplier in each lot being the primary choice. If the first-ranked supplier is unavailable or unable to fulfill the requirements, the award will then cascade down to the second-ranked supplier and so forth, ensuring a systematic selection process. This tiered ranking system allows the Trust to secure services from the preferred supplier while providing a contingency plan in case the top-ranked option is not available, thereby ensuring a streamlined and adaptable procurement process.
