Description

In January 2022 NHS Supply Chain launched a non-exclusive Framework Agreement for supply to NHS Supply
Chain customer base of Insulin Pumps Continuous Glucose Monitoring Closed Loop Insulin Delivery Systems and
Associated Products.

The Framework Agreement provides one ordering platform for all technologies, the objective to award broadly
across the Framework Agreement to ensure continuity of supply for all key product areas and to also allow
optimisation opportunities to be identified. In accordance with Section 3 of the ITT that was published in 2021,
NHS Supply Chain has taken the decision to open the Framework Agreement to new Applicants to ensure the
Framework Agreement continues to offer the broadest possible range of products to the NHS, as well as
ensuring any new technologies and innovations in this product area are made available via the Framework
Agreement.

Applicants successfully awarded to the Framework Agreement during this Agile Tender will be awarded with the
incumbent suppliers who were awarded to the Framework Agreement following the previous tendering exercise
(Contract Award Notice reference: 2022/S 000-000260 which can be viewed at: https://www.gov.uk/findtender).
This agreement is for the supply of Insulin Pumps, Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) devices,
Applications or software to enable the function of Closed Loop Insulin Delivery Systems and also for the
dedicated consumables and accessories for the products listed above.
The Framework Agreement was launched in January 2022 with an initial term of 24 months with an option to
extend incrementally for up to a total period of 48 months. Applicants successfully awarded to the Framework
Agreement during this Agile Tender will therefore be awarded for an initial period of 12 months, with an option
to extend incrementally for up to a total period of 36 months.

It is anticipated that in the first 12 months of the Framework Agreement the value of the purchases will be circa
£20,000,000. For the full 36 month term (if extended) the anticipated value is circa £75,000,000. These values
are approximate only and are based on the most recent historical usage information, with a forecasted level of
growth. The values provided are for guidance only and are not a guarantee of business or volumes to be
purchased from any Supplier.
