A pipeline has been launched for Neonatal Equipment, Adult, Paediatric and Neonatal Phototherapy Devices and Associated Accessories. The contract start Date is 16 June 2021. Approach to market date is 23 November 2020.NHS Supply Chain seeks to establish a non-exclusive framework agreement for the supply to the NHS Supply Chain customer base for Neonatal Equipment, Adult, Paediatric and Neonatal Phototherapy Devices limited to: closed incubators; open warmer incubators; combined incubators, warmer with resuscitation incubator units; transport incubators; neonatal deceased cooling systems; neonatal thermoregulation devices; jaundice meters; phototherapy devices (adult/paediatric and neonatal) and all related accessories.It is anticipated that the initial expenditure will be in the region of GBP 9 million to GBP 11 million in the first year of this framework agreement, however this is approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the framework agreement. An estimated value for the term of the framework agreement (3 + 1 years) will be in the region of GBP 36 million to GBP 44 million.This is a potential opportunity from the government, and the pipeline gives advance notice of an opportunity that might be offered by the public sector in the future – allowing potential suppliers to plan accordingly. When a public sector organisation publishes a pipeline notice, it does not necessarily mean that an opportunity will be offered in the future.For more information contact: NHS Supply Chain Operated by DHL Supply Chain Ltd acting as agent of Supply Chain Coordination Ltd (SCCL), c/o Skipton House, 80 London Road, London SE1 6LH.
