Description

This procurement is for the supply of combined needle and syringes products for use in vaccination delivery. The products will be held within a stockpile until required for use.

It is important to note that this procurement is for products to be held in deep storage. Therefore, the requirements are very different from NHS Supply Chain business as usual arrangements. The product will be held palletised in standard racking for up to the duration of its shelf life and the product will only be issued as required, therefore product, packaging and pallet must be capable of being stored for its stated shelf life and must be fit for issue at any point from receipt to expiry date.

These products will be distributed by NHS Supply Chain as required by The United Kingdom Health Security Agency (UKHSA).

The Supplier(s) awarded to this Contract will be required to deliver the required volume of the awarded products as stated within the tender documents to prescribed Movianto UK (or other nominated).

It is anticipated that following volumes will be required:

Product volume requirement for general population is 122,112,000
Product volume requirement for obese patients is 5,088,000

NHS Supply Chain anticipates engaging with suppliers of these products via an expression of interest and a Request for Information (RFI). Samples are being requested as part of this RFI, these will need to be ward ready samples (in the packaging as it would be delivered to the customer / end user) and provided to as part of the response to the RFI by no later than Thursday 27th February 2025. Further details are provided within the Request for Information (RFI) form.
