## Summary

The NHS Tayside is conducting a procurement exercise for a Mobile Dental Unit, with the project focusing on converting a chassis cab commercial vehicle into a mobile dental facility. This procurement process is classified under the goods category and employs an open procurement method. The requirement has been divided into two lots: Lot 1 for a standard Mobile Dental Unit and Lot 2 for a version equipped with a tail-lift for wheelchair access. The authorities’ preference is to award Lot 2, provided the budget is sufficient. Key dates include a bidding deadline that has been extended to 12 noon on 30 April 2020, and the unit is expected to be delivered in the financial year 2020/2021, with the awarding decision anticipated around May 2020, all situated in Dundee, UK.
