Description

The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as National Services Scotland) (‘the authority') acting through its division Procurement, Commissioning and Facilities is undertaking this procurement of supply and delivery of Arthroscopic Equipment, Implants and Consumables on behalf of all entities constituted pursuant to the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 (i.e. All NHS Scotland Health Boards, Special Health Boards and the Authority of other NHS Organisation established pursuant to the NHS (Scotland) Act 1978), any integrated Joint Boards established pursuant to the new Public Bodies (Joint Working) Scotland Act 2014 (collectively hereafter referred to as 'Participating Authorities’). Lot 1: Arthroscopic Equipment and consumables We require Arthroscopic Equipment, including resection sets Resection Equipment for use in a wide range of NHSS Arthroscopy / sports medicine surgical procedures. Arthroscopic Resection equipment Sets should allow easy and safe exploration and treatment of the joints during minimally invasive surgical management of tissue, meniscus, cartilage, and ligament damage procedures. Equipment should fit together intuitively via a common connection or adaptor, and be able to be used as part of an Arthroscopic system. These will be used in an acute setting across NHSS by suitably trained personnel. Lot 2: Fluid Management Equipment and consumables We require Fluid Management Equipment for use in a wide range of NHSS Arthroscopy/ sports medicine surgical procedures. Arthroscopic Fluid Management equipment should facilitate easy and safe exploration and treatment of the joints during minimally invasive surgical management of tissue, meniscus, cartilage and ligament damage procedures. Equipment should fit together intuitively via a common connection or adaptor, be leakage free, should be able to maintain set pressures, and be able to be used as part of an Arthroscopic system. These will be used in an acute setting across NHSS by suitably trained personnel. Lot 3: Implants and supporting arthroscopic equipment We require implantable Equipment for use in a wide range of NHSS Arthroscopy / sports medicine surgical procedures. Implantable equipment should allow easy and safe treatment of joints during minimally invasive surgical procedures on tissue, meniscus, cartilage and ligament damage. Where the implants are part of a set or sub assembly, they should fit together intuitively using standard and identified tools, and be able to be used as part of an Arthroscopic system. These will be used in an acute setting across NHSS by suitably trained personnel. Lot 4: Generic arthroscopic equipment and consumables (intended for suppliers who do not offer their own control equipment) This Lot is intended to allow access to the Framework to third (3rd) party consumable suppliers who do not manufacture their own control units, but whose products are compatible with that of those suppliers who do. We require single use, sterile, consumable equipment for use in a wide range of NHSS Arthroscopy/ sports medicine surgical procedures. Consumables shall facilitate easy and safe treatment of the points during minimally invasive surgical procedures on tissue, meniscus, cartilage and ligament damage. Where the consumables work as part of an Arthroscopy control unit and handpiece assembly, they should be compatible for use with a wide range of suppliers equipment as defined in Lots 1 & 2 and fit together intuitively using standard and identified tools, and be able to be used as part of an Arthroscopic system. These will be used in an acute setting across NHSS by suitably trained personnel. Lot 5: Combination lot (unscored) “We require a range of Arthroscopic Equipment and consumbles, Fluid Management Equipment, Implants and supporting arthroscopic equipment and generic arthroscopic equipment and consumables that can be used in a Procedure within an NHS Scotland Acute setting by appropriate trained personnel. Bidders are requested to submit bids for combinations of volume commitments of applicable products, as previously tendered in Lots 1, 2, 3, or 4 detailing additional discounts in return for combined volume commitments from the Health Boards, or from a collaboration of Health Boards. Bidders are invited to put forward suggestions for percentage discount from Non Commitment Contract Price and/or commitment band(s) Bidders may submit any number of combinations up to 100 for Market Share for 1 health board, multiple boards and/or All of Scotland (Current spend circa GBP 3.6 Mpa) PLEASE NOTE: In order to be awarded to this Lot, bidders are required to be awarded to a minimum of one of the Scored Lots on this tender i.e. Lots 1-4 Lot 6: Enhanced Services / Innovation Lot (Unscored) Bidders are requested to submit details of any Enhanced Service they offer. Key deliverables will be decided on a case by case basis but may include, but not be limited to, such evidenced criteria as: Reduced Waiting Times Streamlined Patient Pathway Innovative products related to the Framework Reduced Readmission Rate Lower Costs Enhanced Data Quality & Reporting Enhanced Inventory Management Bidders should submit details of any service offered or innovation soon to be available, including unique selling points, for consideration, in 2,000 words or less. Responses should include relevant case studies, successes and details of how purchase of these services, in addition to commitment volumes on Lots 1-4 inclusive, will positively impact on patient care and/or (non-)commitment volume prices for Health boards.
