Scope
Description
The Council is seeking to appoint a supplier to provide point of care testing consumables and, where needed, analysers to support delivery of the NHS Health Checks programme. The successful supplier will also be required to provide maintenance support, quality assurance materials, and training. The total annual contract value will not exceed £55,000, which includes all costs, delivery, technical support, and training, which must be covered within this amount.
