Mobile Diagnostic and Treatment Units Dynamic Purchasing System

The procurement process initiated by Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust involves the establishment of a dynamic purchasing system (DPS) for Mobile Diagnostic and Treatment Units, classified under the category of vehicle bodies, trailers or semi-trailers. This tender process is in the "tender" stage, with a focus on goods that will assist healthcare organisations across the UK, including NHS bodies, in managing patient backlogs and providing mobile treatment facilities closer to patients' homes. The procurement employs a selective method through restricted procedure and is set to conclude its tender period by 2nd September 2028.

The dynamic system is divided into three Lots, involving either hire, purchase, or management services of the mobile units, with an overarching contract value of £30,000,000. This opportunity opens avenues for businesses specialising in vehicle manufacturing, medical equipment suppliers, and service providers that are looking to establish or expand their supply networks within the public healthcare sector. Companies capable of delivering equipped medical units, either as standalone purchases or leased entities, and those offering services such as managed operations including staffing, are well-suited to submit bids.

Furthermore, the DPS system's flexible terms allow suppliers to bid for multiple Lots, maximizing business growth potential through substantial, long-term contracts with the NHS and related health organisations. Electronic submission via the specified portal ensures accessibility and efficiency in participating in this dynamic tendering process.
