Resilience
Our increased knowledge of the global manufacturing base following COVID-19 and subsequent global supply challenges, means we are better able to identify potential risks and mitigate them by building resilience into our sourcing strategies.
For this framework we are adopting measures including bringing products on lot 6 into the stocked route.

How to purchase from the framework

Products available via our stocked and eDirect supply routes can be purchased using our online catalogue.

Important notice – for stocked products only.
Following the move to Buy Price = Sell Price, new contract / framework prices will only come into effect when stock of all product at the old contract / framework price has been depleted.

To order products via the direct route:

• Customers will need to obtain a quotation either through our Category team or directly from the supplier to benefit from national Framework Agreement pricing. Please quote the framework reference number when contacting your preferred supplier to ensure the correct pricing and compliance.
• Customers have two options to procure equipment via the framework. Trusts can either direct award if internal Standard Financial Instructions (SFIs) are followed or carry out a pricing exercise via the framework which will be managed by our Category team.
• If you choose to direct award, a URN number is optional and can be obtained from the Category team. This URN must then be detailed on your purchase order to order the required equipment.

Ordering samples

Product samples and trials are available from some of the suppliers on the framework.

Please note that the decision to supply samples and/or trials, along with the unit of issue, supplied quantity, time to supply and free of charge nature of any request, is solely the decision of the relevant supplier(s).

Product switching will be available following the start of the framework. Analysis will take place to highlight cost effective alternatives and to identify switch and rationalisation opportunities. If you are interested in further information about product switching, please speak to our ICS managers.

See our Useful Links section for your ICS Manager contact details.

The framework can support mini competitions for further savings. If you are interested in further information, please contact the Category Team to find out more:
