The tender was for goods falling under the Health industry category. The procurement stage was at the award stage, with the contract award signed on November 21, 2023, amounting to £246,000 GBP. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in supplying barcode labels within the health sector to compete for a contract with NHS National Services Scotland. The buyer, a public body operating under public law, opted for the open procedure as the procurement method. Businesses with expertise in providing technical and quality barcode label solutions suitable for the healthcare industry would be well-suited to participate in this competitive tendering process. ## Notice The contract will cover the supply of ISBT 128 Standard Donation Identification Number (DIN) self-adhesive Barcode Labels. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service (SNBTS) will use the Donor Identification Number (DIN) Barcode labels during the collection, manufacture and storage of blood, blood components, tissues and cells donations. Each DIN barcode label set will be used to uniquely reference each donation of blood, tissues and cells and associated samples for testing. SNBTS also provide DIN labels to the NHS-Assisted reproductive centres in Scotland to be used in the collection, manufacture, labelling and cryopreservation of reproductive cell donations. There is the potential that the introduction of plasma for medicines collections will increase the requirement for DIN barcode labels during the period of the contract. However, this is expected to be a gradual change and is currently unclear at what point this will commence. Options: SNBTS reserve the right to take up the option of new/additional label sets if required. Renewal: The Authority shall be entitled, at its option, to continue this Agreement beyond the Initial Term for two (2) twelve (12) Contract Month periods subject to giving not less than six (6) Contract Months' notice to the Contractor. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN496188 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Jan 2024 | | Submission deadline | 2 Aug 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 21 Nov 2023 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | March 2028 | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £246,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE COMMON SERVICES AGENCY (MORE COMMONLY KNOWN AS NHS NATIONAL SERVICES SCOTLAND) ("NSS") | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH12 9EB | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Drum Brae/Gyle | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh South West | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | MERCIAN LABELS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 30 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages ### Codes - 30192800 - Self-adhesive labels - 30199760 - Labels - 30199761 - Bar-coded labels ## Release History - 10 Jan 2024 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN496188 - 30 Jun 2023 at 00:00 - Tender - OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUN482544 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUN482544 ISBT 128 Donation Identification Number Barcode Labels - The contract will cover the supply of ISBT 128 Standard Donation Identification Number (DIN) self-adhesive Barcode Labels. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN496188 ISBT 128 Donation Identification Number Barcode Labels - The contract will cover the supply of ISBT 128 Standard Donation Identification Number (DIN) self-adhesive Barcode Labels. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.nss.nhs.scot/browse/procurement-and-logistics - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000731810 - https://www.publictendersscotland.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
