## About this tender

The East of England Collaborative Procurement Hub is looking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the procurement of Pharmacy Automation. The DPS is a two-stage process. There is no limit on the number of suppliers that may join the DPS. New suppliers can also apply to join the DPS at any point during its lifetime.

Individual contracts are awarded during the second stage. In this stage, approved users of the DPS (referred to as Contracting Authorities) will invite all suppliers on the DPS for the relevant category to bid for a specific contract. The specific systems/goods and services that may be procured under the DPS cannot be clearly defined at this stage as they are user specific, however the nature and types of services that may be required may include but not limited to those categories identified under this DPS include;

Ward Automation (including but not limited to Automated carts)

Full Pack Robots

### Unit Dose Robots

### Secured controlled access systems

Prescription kiosks (including but not limited to; Prescription payment kiosks and self-service units)

### Medication dispensing Carts

### Aseptic Compounding Software

Other Pharmacy Automation Solutions & bespoke pharmacy technology

The overarching specification upon which the Dynamic Purchasing System is established will be subject to change throughout the lifetime of the Dynamic Purchasing System in order to achieve alignment with national standards, legislation, guidance and requirements as they evolve. Any such changes will be subject to full approval and economic operators will be notified of any such planned changes. It is envisaged that once established this DPS will be for East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub (EoECPH) members however other Purchasing Authorities may access as set out below.

Subject to completion of the Customer Access Agreement, this DPS will include, and be for the benefit of publicly funded (both wholly and partially funded) entities in the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England. This will include, but is not limited to: Acute, Ambulance, Mental Health, Clinical Commissioning Groups, Health and Care Trusts, GP Practices, Area Teams, Local Authorities, Social Enterprises, Her Majesty's Prison Service, Central government bodies, sub-central government bodies, Private Providers delivering an NHS Commissioned Service or active in the UK Healthcare sector and Special Health Authorities, HSC in Northern Ireland, NHS Scotland and NHS Wales, including any successor or emerging organisations, which will include but is not limited to the emerging landscape of combined health and social care commissioners and providers.
