The provision will be split into five Lots: - Lot 1 Stoma Prescription Service - Lot 2 Catheter Prescription Service - Lot 3 Stoma and Catheter Combined Prescription Service - Lot 4 Stoma Pre- and/or Post-Operative Care Support - Lot 5 Combined Stoma Service – Prescription and Pre- and/or Post-Operative Care Support The services in scope of this procurement process are healthcare services which fall under ‘social and other specific services’ in Section 7 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (‘PCR’) (as amended). In accordance with Regulation 76 PCR, the process is to set up a framework agreement and will follow a procedure similar to the open procedure. However, the Framework Manager and the contracting authorities using the framework are only bound by the parts of the PCR that specifically apply to social and other specific services. For the avoidance of doubt, the rules that apply to the open procedure under Regulation 27 and framework agreements under Regulation 33 do not apply to this procurement. All providers that meet the minimum requirements set out under the procurement process will be appointed to the framework agreement. There will be no maximum number of providers appointed.
