In plain English
The NHS is creating a fast-track route to bring innovative medical technology products to NHS hospitals and clinics. They want to buy new or improved medical devices and diagnostic products across ten specialties (orthopaedics, cardiology, oncology, pathology, and others) that wouldn't normally fit on standard NHS purchasing frameworks.
What the buyer wants
• Supply innovative, regulatory-approved medical technology products and associated services across specified clinical areas • Reduce time to market and barriers to entry for novel medical devices while maintaining patient safety • Provide early access to game-changing products that meet unmet clinical needs or improve existing treatments • Support NHS trusts in accessing products that enhance patient outcomes
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This is almost certainly disqualified for most small businesses: you must hold current regulatory approval (MHRA or CE mark) for a medical device, have clinical evidence, quality management systems, and proven manufacturing capability. If you do not already manufacture or distribute approved medical technology, you cannot bid. This is not for resellers, distributors, or consultants without a qualified product.
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.
