Description

In this instance, Leicestershire County Council is undertaking a procurement process to identify and appoint an appropriately accredited supplier to supply Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) products.

The Council requires access to a range of licensed NRT products for use by the QuitReady Team (who are part of the Council). The QuitReady Team offers a 12 week programme to smokers in Leicestershire and a regular supply of NRT products is a key element to a successful quit programme.

The contract will enable the Council to procure NRT products directly from the supplier.

The estimated value of this Contract is £150,000 per annum, based on historical spend. The total maximum contract value, if all extension options are taken is therefore £600,000.
