There is also a requirement to collect parcels from similar sites and return these to a NECS facility. It is estimated that an average of 1200-1500 parcels per month would be shipped in either direction, however this volume is subject to change based on evolving NHS working practice and through short-term project activity.

NECS will need a comprehensive delivery and collection service for IT equipment (e.g., laptops, monitors, mobile phones) to and from residential addresses and NHS sites located in United Kingdom.

At the end of the initial contract term the Commissioner will have extension options of up to 3 months in total, which will be awarded at the commissioner's discretion.
