Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This is a high-complexity NHS care contract requiring CQC registration, substantial staffing infrastructure, and proven experience delivering care across a large, dispersed geographic area: most one-person or very small trades will not be eligible, and the application process is lengthy and demanding.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
