Description

DHSC intends to establish the DPS to help fulfil its requirement for the ongoing supply of additional Lateral Flow Testing Kits. DHSC is therefore seeking applications from potential providers to be admitted to the DPS. DHSC envisages that the DPS will be divided into the categories of products (Lots) with differential characteristics (more fully described in the Specification). DHSC currently intends to run multiple procurements within the DPS to seek tenders from those providers that have qualified onto the DPS and whose tests fall within one or more of the relevant lots. Whilst the initial response date for applications to join is the 07/04/2021, potential providers may join the DPS at any time up to the date the DPS expires so long as the potential provider meets the criteria stated in the procurement documents found on this Contract Finder Notice as well as on Atamis, the appointed e-sourcing platform (http://health.atamis.co.uk). If a potential provider meets the criteria for admission to the DPS then it may be invited to tender for the award of one or more contracts. DHSC envisages using specific criteria which may, where appropriate, be formulated more precisely in the Invitations to Tender for those procurements. A high-level overview of those criteria is also provided below. For those procurements within the DPS, DHSC envisage using the following criteria which may, where appropriate, be formulated more precisely in the Invitations to Tender for those procurements and may differ depending on Lot and the requirements of the procurement: (A) Cost; (B) Selected elements of the Specification; (C) Performance Requirements; (D) Terms & Conditions; and (E) Social Value. DHSC does not seek to procure Tests which are exclusively nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal or exclusively both.
