Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust This framework will be available for use by Trusts in East of England and London regions, but the volumes for these regions have not been included for adjudication as part of the tender process. SEC Trusts can utilise this tender for products or services not covered by the National unlicensed aseptically prepared cytotoxic medicines and mAbs framework via MPSC. Please note: we did not publish a preliminary market engagement notice (UK2) for the following reasons: - we are not seeking to further develop our requirements or procurement approach. - we have procured similar supply arrangements via the Open procedure and deployed similar conditions of participation and award criteria. These have yielded good results previously. - we have already prepared our tender pack (see attached), that detail standard NHS contractual terms which have been found to be acceptable to the supply chain. - we understand the likely suppliers who will be interested but the open notice approach gives opportunity to others looking to enter the mAbs supply market
