The process began with an open procedure, inviting bids for a range of intravenous administration sets and related items, which fall under the health industry category. The buying organisation, located in Edinburgh, UKM region, initiated the tender on September 2, 2024, with submissions due by October 2, 2024, indicating an active tender stage that subsequently culminated in the awarding of contracts by May 23, 2025. This procurement serves all NHS Scotland Health Boards, and the framework agreement spans a contract duration and two possible extensions totalling 1080 days. The framework includes multiple lots with criteria based on quality and price, fostering a competitive environment for suppliers. This tender opens significant business growth opportunities for large-scale suppliers equipped to deliver high-quality intravenous administration products. Businesses specialising in medical goods, particularly those offering solutions like needle-free IV access or blood pressure transducers, can benefit from competing in this process. Suppliers like B Braun Medical, Vygon (UK) Ltd, and others are well-placed due to their existing capability and scale, enabling them to meet the demands laid out by NHS National Services Scotland. Given the multi-supplier framework nature, there is potential for multiple organisations to secure positions, thus expanding their market reach within the UK's public health sector, benefiting from sizeable contract values in the framework agreement. Community benefits are emphasised, encouraging participants to engage with the NHS Scotland Community Benefits Gateway, providing additional local impact and collaboration opportunities. ## Notice The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as National Services Scotland) ('the Authority') acting through its division National Procurement, is undertaking this procurement of Intravenous Administration Sets And Related Items('Products') as outlined further below on behalf of all entities constituted pursuant to the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978, (i.e. all NHS Scotland Health Boards, Special Health Boards and the Authority or other NHS Organisation established pursuant to the NHS (Scotland) Act 1978), any integrated Joint Boards established pursuant to the new Public Bodies (Joint Working) Scotland Act 2014 (collectively hereafter referred to as 'Participating Authorities'). ### Lot Information Needle Free IV Access TKO Provision of Needle Free IV Access TKO products.
