II.2.4) Description of the procurement

This project was started 2021 where we undertook a mini competition via the NHSSC framework for Blood Monitoring. As only one supplier submitted a bid the Trust cancelled the procurement due to lack of competition and supplier engagement to successfully test the market.

Following a failed mini competition via the NHS Supply Chain Framework, an Open Procedure was conducted. Again, we only received one bid which did not meet the Trust SFI"s for a competitive process and failed to achieve market testing for price, EQA testing and Trust training.

An alternative supplier was identified via market research and verified via conversations with other Trusts to understand the pricing structure and ways of working. GlucoRX presented a huge saving for NELFT and when the meters were reviewed by the medical team, they were deemed appropriate for use especially as they meet the set regulatory requirements for Blood Glucose testing, and can provide a product that tests for both Glucose and Ketones in one device, which will streamline processes across the Trust.

Internal Quality testing solution and External Quality assessments are provided and managed by the supplier at no cost to the Trust, as well as all meters, batteries and logbooks.

Explanation:

This project was started 2021 where we undertook a mini competition via the NHSSC framework for Blood Monitoring. As only one supplier submitted a bid the Trust cancelled the procurement due to lack of competition and supplier engagement to successfully test the market.

Following a failed mini competition via the NHS Supply Chain Framework, an Open Procedure was conducted. Again, we only received one bid which did not meet the Trust SFI"s for a competitive process and failed to achieve market testing for price, EQA testing and Trust training meaning the procurement was cancelled.

An alternative supplier was identified via market research and verified via conversations with other Trusts to understand the pricing structure and ways of working. GlucoRX presented a huge saving for NELFT and when the meters were reviewed by the medical team, they were deemed appropriate for use especially as they meet the set regulatory requirements for Blood Glucose testing, and can provide a product that tests for both Glucose and Ketones in one device, which will streamline processes across the Trust.
