In addition, the categories are subject to different commercial models, pricing mechanisms, market dynamics, and contract management requirements.\nMaintaining separate frameworks will enable a more tailored procurement approach for each category, support effective category management, and better align with customer and market needs. This revised approach is expected to enhance supplier engagement, promote competition, and provide greater flexibility to respond to future market developments and evolving customer demand.\nWe are looking at ways to review the procurement strategy and simplify commercials in terms of agreements and pricing points, rationalise ranges for stocked product. This framework will continue to incorporate sustainability requirements for third party social audits across Surgical Gloves.\nThe intended Lot Structure for this procurement is set out as follows:\nLot 1 Surgical Gloves\nThe Framework Agreement will be entered into between the Authority and individual Supplier(s). The Authority may purchase goods under the Framework Agreement, which will be made available for purchase by:\n• any NHS Trust;\n• any other NHS entity;\n• any government department, agency or other statutory body (for the avoidance of doubt including local authorities); and/or\n• any private sector entity active in the UK healthcare sector.\nThe award of a place on the Framework Agreement does not guarantee any commitment by the Authority or its customers to place any orders under the Framework Agreement.\nTo participate in NHS Supply Chain procurements, Tenderers must be registered on the Central Digital Platform (CDP) and have shared their information with NHS Supply Chain via the CDP. The CDP is available at: https://www.gov.uk/findtender\nPlease ensure your details match your account details in Jaggaer, Companies House and CDP.\nIt is the Suppliers responsibility to ensure the account set up in Jaggaer is in the correct company name. For example, if the name has been set up incorrectly or the business has had changes to its organisation we recommend the following:\nIncorrect Name (such as typo) - Contact Jaggaer via the help options (seen on page after logging in) and explain that the details are incorrect and provide correct details.\nCompany organisation Changes - 2 options:\nNote: Audit trails need to be maintained in Jaggaer which makes it difficult to allow changes to business that have had significant changes such as merges of businesses or been purchased by other organisations.\nOption 1: Create a new account with new name (preferred).\nOption 2: Current account - Contact Jaggaer via the help options (seen on page after logging in) and provide details of the changes (such as a company name change document from companies house).\nTenderers must also be registered on Jaggaer, as all tender activity will be conducted through this system. The Tenderer is responsible for ensuring that its Jaggaer account is set up in the correct company name and that all information is kept up to date. Jaggaer can be accessed via https://nhssupplychain.app.jaggaer.com\nThe Authority estimates that, in the first 12 months of the Framework, the total value of purchases will be approximately £31,100,000. Over the full 48-month term, the estimated total value is approximately £165,000,000. The estimated value for the first 12 months reflects anticipated expenditure based on current activity levels and forecast growth, including a prudent contingency allowance to accommodate anticipated increases in demand and other market factors. These values are indicative only and do not constitute any guarantee of business with successful Tenderers.\nThe following requirements are anticipated to apply but are not exhaustive and may be updated in accordance with applicable legislation and/or relevant guidance (please refer to the requirements set out in the ITT):\n• ISO Certification\nTenderers must hold ISO 9001: 2015, ISO 13485:2016 or Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) certification, accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) or internationally recognised equivalent. The certification must cover all relevant elements of the Tenderer’s and the product(s) supply chain, including (but not be limited to) sales, manufacturing, storage and distribution. Acceptable UKAS alternatives are listed at: https://global-aci.org/en/full-members\n• CE Certification and Declaration of Conformity\nWhere applicable, valid CE Certification and Declarations of Conformity must be submitted at the tender submission stage.\n• Modern Slavery Statement\nTenderers with an annual turnover of £36 million or more must comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015, publish an annually updated Modern Slavery Statement on their website, and provide a link to that statement.\n• Modern Slavery Assessment Tool (MSAT)\nTenderers must have achieved an MSAT score of 41% or above within 12 months prior to the tender close date. The assessment results must be shared with NHS Supply Chain via the ‘share’ function on the Supplier Registration Service (SRS) Portal, available at: https://supplierregistration.cabinetoffice.gov.uk\n• Third-party Audit\nTenderers must provide evidence of third-party social audits for manufacturing facilities supplying products under the Framework. Audit requirements are expected to include assessment against forced labour risks, including the 11 International Labour Organisation (ILO) Forced Labour Indicators.

Further details will be provided within the ITT documentation.\n• Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment\nTenderers must have completed the Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment and achieved Level 1 or above within 12 months prior to the Tender Close Date. Guidance and access are available at: https://www.england.nhs.uk/nhs-commercial/central-commercialfunction-ccf/evergreen\n• Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP)\nTenderers must provide a valid Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) link on their website that meets the requirements of PPN 006.\n• Cyber Security\nTenderers that handle patient or personal data, or provide IT systems, services, or devices, must either:\n• hold a valid Cyber Essentials Plus Certificate; or\n• where the Tenderer does not have a Cyber Essentials Plus Certificate, submit a completed Information Security Third Party Questionnaire (ISTPQ).\n• Distribution Agreements\nIf tendering as a Distributor, the Tenderer must provide written evidence from the relevant Original Equipment Manufacturer(s) (OEM) confirming that they have rights to distribute goods for the Term as defined in the Framework Agreement Award Pack.

In addition, the categories are subject to different commercial models, pricing mechanisms, market dynamics, and contract management requirements.\nMaintaining separate frameworks will enable a more tailored procurement approach for each category, support effective category management, and better align with customer and market needs. This revised approach is expected to enhance supplier engagement, promote competition, and provide greater flexibility to respond to future market developments and evolving customer demand.\nWe are looking at ways to review the procurement strategy and simplify commercials in terms of agreements and pricing points, rationalise ranges for stocked product. This framework will continue to incorporate sustainability requirements for third party social audits across Surgical Gloves.\nThe intended Lot Structure for this procurement is set out as follows:\nLot 1 Surgical Gloves\nThe Framework Agreement will be entered into between the Authority and individual Supplier(s).
