In plain English

This is a 5-year agreement where Procurement Assist is looking for courier and delivery companies to join their supplier list. Multiple NHS trusts, councils, housing providers and charities can then use this list to order courier services (overnight, same-day, UK and international deliveries) as they need them.

What the buyer wants

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a very high-value framework (£100 million estimated spend across 5 years) and will almost certainly require established courier companies with substantial fleet, infrastructure and insurance. Most solo traders or very small operators will struggle to meet financial viability checks and insurance requirements.

How to bid

This is a Dynamic Purchasing System: an open list of approved suppliers. You can apply to join at any time while it runs, and once accepted you can bid for the individual contracts the buyer runs through it.
