## Summary

The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland) (NSS) is planning a procurement process focused on the "Childsmile" tender, targeting the health industry category. This procurement will supply and deliver Childsmile products across NHS Scotland, covering various age groups from 0 to 6, including items such as free flow feeding/drinking cups, toothbrushes, and different types of toothpaste. The planned procurement involves a goods category and is located in the UK region, specifically Edinburgh. The process is currently in the planning stage with a future notice date set for 2 December 2024, indicating that the initiation of the tender phase is forthcoming. The procurement adheres to GPA standards and relevant EU legal frameworks.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacture and supply of oral health products, particularly those specialising in children’s dental care items. Companies with a strong background in producing high-quality healthcare products and the ability to meet rigorous NHS supply-chain standards would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging in this procurement could lead to significant business growth by securing a contract with a central purchasing body like the NSS, enhancing reputation, and providing steady demand for products aligned with national health initiatives.
