This procurement opportunity relates to provision of Pharmacy Services and has arisen through consultation and discussion between three organisations, local to North East Lincolnshire, who have come together to form a buying Consortium/Partnership.

Navigo Health and Social Care CIC (lead commissioner) (https://navigocare.co.uk/) delivers a whole mental health service within the boundaries of N E Lincolnshire; HMT St Hugh's (https://hmtsthughs.org/) is a private hospital and registered charity offering services to insured, NHS and self-funding patients and St Andrew's Hospice (https://www.standrewshospice.com/) provides care for both children and adults with life-limiting illnesses, mainly locally, but also from further afield in the case of children.

As a Partnership we wish to procure Pharmacy Services across the three organisations which will include: -

• Procurement and storage of pharmaceutical products

• Dispensing of medication (including controlled medication) both for named patients and as stock.

• Dispensing of TTO and discharge medications.

• Supply of non-stock items

• Delivery of medication in suitably temperature-controlled vehicles to all in-patients' units and wards

• Bulk delivery of medication to main sites or agreed community locations (all within the N E Lincolnshire geographical area)

• Provision of depot medication for those community teams who administer them.
