In plain English
NHS Supply Chain is setting up a framework agreement, worth an estimated £260 million, for the supply of medical devices and consumables used in bladder and bowel care in hospitals and social care. Covered products include continence care for urinary retention, stoma care, urodynamics (bladder function testing), reusable bedpans and bowel dysfunction equipment. Disposable and washable pads and bladder scanners are excluded, and being placed on the framework does not guarantee any orders.
What the buyer wants
• Register on the Central Digital Platform and share your company information with NHS Supply Chain through it, keeping it up to date. • Register on the NHS Supply Chain eProcurement portal, open ITT_2360 (Urology and Bowel Management), click Express Interest, then select Intend to Respond. • Submit a response to at least one of the lots: ITT_2361, ITT_2362, ITT_2363, ITT_2364 or ITT_2365.
Lots
- Catheter and Urinary Management
- Bowel Management
- Stoma Care Management
- Skin Cleansing and Protection
- Diagnostic/Treatment
Requirements
Named in the buyer's notice:
- Cyber Essentials
- Cyber Essentials Plus
- ISO 9001
What could rule a small business out: The extract sets no turnover or experience threshold, but the £260 million value, the wide range of medical products across five lots, and the fact that framework places do not guarantee orders mean a small business would need substantial medical device supply capacity to make this commercially worthwhile.

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.
Where to apply
The notice doesn't name a website for bids. Ask the buyer how to apply, using the contact on the official notice.
