Environmental Decontamination

Framework agreement for the supply of environmental decontamination and water purification products, services and relevant accessories to NHS Supply Chain depots via the Stocked route or direct to customers via the eDirect/Direct route to market. The ranges of products available under the framework agreement include; Misting/fogging and UVC machines, air purification systems, patient segregation bays, healthcare water treatment systems, water filters, capital filtration and any consumables.

Precise quantities are unknown. It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be in the region of £12,250,000 to £26,500,000 in the first year of the framework. However, this is approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the framework agreement.

The forthcoming tender will have contract conditions that will require suppliers to demonstrate that they are managing ethical compliance at their organisation and manufacturing facilities. NHS Supply Chain will brief potential bidders in more detail about the exact requirements in the pre-tender phase. Details of the pre-tender webinar (date to be confirmed) will be shared with all interested parties via the Jaggaer messaging system.

The NHS has adopted PPN 06/20 (taking account of Social Value), and therefore this future Framework Agreement will include some qualitative evaluation questions on Social Value with a minimum weighting of 10% towards the award.

Suppliers bidding on NHS Supply Chain tenders will also be required to submit an Evergreen Assessment, please see https://www.england.nhs.uk/nhs-commercial/central-commercial-function-ccf/evergreen/. PPN 02/23 "Tackling Modern Slavery in Government Supply Chains" will also apply.
