Tender description

In 2022, the Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust's Commercial Procurement Service established a National Framework Agreement for asset lifecycle contract management services to facilitate improvements in organisational efficiency which may otherwise have been overlooked under a fragmented approach to contract management. This framework has provided a targeted end to end outsourced lifecycle contract management solution spanning procurement, contract management and service delivery management. The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust's Commercial Procurement Service now wishes to establish a new framework to enable and support continued asset and contract lifecycle management within the NHS and wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to enable a provider to increase efficiency against traditional contract letting and management methods, whilst maintaining or improving high standards of delivery.
