Original Tender Description

NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) intends to undertake preliminary market engagement in advance of a future procurement exercise for new semi‑automated blood presses. This market engagement activity is intended to inform NHSBT’s understanding of the current market and available solutions and will provide interested suppliers with the opportunity to present their products, outline key features and capabilities, and participate in technical discussions. These sessions will also allow suppliers to ask and respond to questions to ensure mutual understanding. As part of this engagement, NHSBT may invite suppliers to provide a device on a short‑term loan basis. This will enable NHS operators to assess and provide feedback on practical aspects of the equipment, including usability, cleaning processes, and alignment with NHSBT’s indicative requirements. This exercise will be used to compare products against anticipated specifications and to inform the development of the future procurement documentation. Participation in this preliminary market engagement is voluntary and will not form part of any subsequent procurement evaluation.
