HTE is a central purchasing body who is able to carry out this tender exercise by virtue of its appointment as an agent of UHCW. Notwithstanding HTE’s relationship with UHCW, it is HTE that will conduct this tender exercise and will execute the resultant Framework Agreement with successful bidders. This tender exercise is for the benefit of all the public and voluntary bodies listed further below in this Section II.1.5). For the avoidance of doubt, UHCW is not carrying out this tender — your contact point is HTE using the details given in Section I.1).
The public and voluntary sector bodies to whom the use of this Framework Agreement will be open include all contracting authorities in the United Kingdom as defined in Regulation 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2006 as well as all contracting authorities and entities in the European Union as defined in the Annexes to Commission Decision 2008/963/EC as may be updated from time to time. In particular, it is envisaged that this Framework Agreement will be used by the following entities in the United Kingdom as described below (particularly where such entities are of a health and/or social care nature):
(1) All National Health Service (NHS) bodies in England, including but not limited to (i) acute trusts (a list of which can be found at ); (ii) health and care trusts (a list of which can be found at );(iii) mental health trusts (a list of which can be found at ); (iv) clinical commissioning groups (a list of which can be found at ); (v) ambulance trusts (a list of which can be found at ); (vi) area teams (a list of which can be found at ); (vii) special health authorities (); (viii) NHS England (formerly the NHS Commissioning Board); and (ix) clinical senates and strategic clinical networks.
(2) All NHS bodies in Wales, including but not limited to all (i) health boards; (ii) NHS trusts; (iii) the national delivery group; (iv) community health councils; and (v) NHS Wales shared services partnership (a list of which can be found at ).

(5) All social enterprises undertaking some or all of what were previously the service provider functions of contracting authorities in relation to health and/or social care services (including charitable incorporated organisations, cooperatives, industrial and provident societies and community interest companies as listed on the Companies House WebCheck service).
(6) Ministerial departments and non-ministerial departments of central government, non-departmental agencies and other public bodies, and public corporations (a list of which can be found at ).
(7) Devolved governmental and parliamentary organisations within the United Kingdom, including but not limited the Scottish Government, Scottish Parliament, and Scottish public bodies (a list of which can be found at ), as well as the Welsh Government, Welsh Assembly and Welsh unitary authorities (a list of which can be found at ).

The above list includes each organisation’s successors and assigns, any equivalent organisations and any associated organisations created as a result of any organisational changes.
In addition, the use of this framework agreement will be open to any bodies or organisations operating in the United Kingdom and/or any country in the European Union which are of a health and/or social care nature or which have a similar procurement need in respect of any goods or services to any of the above listed organisations.
Furthermore, and if provided for in the contract documents, HTE may extend the scope and benefit of the framework agreement to any private sector (i.e. all non-public sector) organisations operating in the United Kingdom and/or any country in the European Union which are of a health and/or social care nature who may also use this framework agreement. Whilst HTE is not required by procurement legislation to do so, it has extended the principles of the public tendering so as to assure its private sector customers of best value and open and transparent processes. In the United Kingdom these entities are registered with the Care Quality Commission (a list of providers can be found at ). In the European Union, such entities are regulated by equivalent regulatory bodies, each of which maintains an equivalent list.
In purchasing goods and/or services or awarding contracts under the Framework Agreement, HTE is:
(a) acting in its capacity as agent for UHCW in relation to the public and voluntary sector bodies listed above only; and
(b) acting in its capacity as principal in relation to the private sector bodies (and not as agent of UHCW).
Please note additional information is given about this tender exercise at Section VI.3).
