In plain English
The hospital trust wants to buy a batch of Fresnel prisms, which are thin, flat plastic optical lenses used in eye clinics to bend light and help correct double vision or eye alignment problems. The item is listed under "dioptre consumables", meaning disposable or regularly replaced optical items measured by their lens strength. The contract is worth about £4,892, so it is a one-off, low-value purchase of physical products.
What the buyer wants
• Supply the specified Fresnel prisms and optical consumables to the Trust, in the quantities and strengths (dioptres) listed in the tender documents. • Confirm the products are certified as medical devices, with proof of CE or UKCA marking and any MHRA registration. • Deliver to the Trust's named site(s) within the stated timescale, with packaging and labelling suitable for clinical use.
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
The main barrier is proving the products are compliant medical devices with the right certification and documentation, which a small business without an established medical supply route may struggle to provide quickly.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
