Description
Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust are carrying out some initial market engagement in relation to Sterilisation, disinfection and hygiene services in relation to surgical instrumentation and medical devices.
This notice intends to facilitate early engagement with potential Providers to seek the views and opinions of organisations that may be interested in delivering Sterile Services and relates only to a pre-procurement Market Engagement Questionnaire (MEQ).
Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust are currently developing their Service Specification, contracting process and commercial model for Sterile Services and intend to commence a procurement process to award a contract to provide the Service from 1st April 2022. The new Service will be for a period of 3 years, with the option to extend for a further 2-year period at the Contracting Authority's discretion. The estimated costs associated with provision of this Service (based on 5 years) are approximately £5m.
More detail on the proposed Service can be found in the draft Service Specification which has been shared via Eu Supply along with the MEQ.
Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust are seeking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a Service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations. Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise. Interested parties should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust will consider in due course. Participation in this Market Engagement activity is not a mandatory requirement for participating in any potential future procurement; however, the responses will inform Royal Papworth NHS Foundation Trust with regards to the level of market interest.
CONFIRMATION OF YOUR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST IS THEREFORE IMPORTANT.
