Atmospheric Monitoring Devices – NHS Resilience Emergency Capabilities Unit

London Ambulance Service NHS Trust · NHS and health

It is split into 3 lots, so a supplier can bid for part of the work.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

What the notice says

London Ambulance Service on behalf of the NHS Resilience Emergency Capabilities Unit would like to appoint suppliers onto a framework for the provision of Atmospheric Monitoring Equipment. The framework will enable named Contracting Authorities to procure Atmospheric Monitoring Equipment and associated services. The framework will be divided into lots: Lot 1: Portable Single Gas Detectors Lot 2: Portable Multi Gas Detectors Lot 3: Area Monitors Each lot will encompass ongoing product support throughout the contract term, including requirements for routine servicing, maintenance, calibration, and software for data collection and analysis. The anticipation is to have a single supplier per lot. However, the Contracting Authority reserves the right to divert to a secondary supplier. The framework will be hosted by London Ambulance Service NHS Trust on behalf of the other named authorities.
