Description
The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is looking to engage an Express Freight Service (EFS) with global reach and capability. The EFS forms part of the DHSC's National Supply Disruption Response, which is part of the multi-layered approach to help mitigate the impact of disruption to supply of medicines and medical products. It was originally designed to help mitigate disruption in the event of a no deal exit from the EU and has since been used as part of COVID 19 response arrangements when all other options have been exhausted. The new requirement is for a managed service to provide access to a Premium freight service for the transportation of medicines, medical products, medical devices/components of and/ or services related to such products in the event that a supplier's own logistics arrangements are disrupted, and contingency measures fail. The solution may utilise any mode of transport, subject to these being compatible with the transit timescale requirements, conditions of carriage, and the effective mitigation of foreseeable disruption to services. The service will be available for use by Crown Bodies and Crown Dependencies. The contracting authority intends to use the Department of Health and Social Care Atamis eTendering system to manage the tender. Information relating to the tender is available within Atamis.
