Workplace Essential: Supplies, Design, and PPE

HeathTrust Europe is seeking bids for a framework Agreement for Workplace Essentials: Supplies, Designs, and PPE. It is anticipated that the resulting Framework Agreement will cover Goods and Services within the following Lot structure: Lot 1 - Workplace Supplies Lot 2 - Workplace Designs Lot 3 - Workplace Non-Clinical PPE We carried out an engagement similar to PME, before the new Procurement Act 2023 came into force in February 2025. During the engagement HTE focused on identifying the best-fit solution for workplace solutions products and services. The goal was to ensure that the future supply model is cost-effective, sustainable, and responsive to the evolving needs of the workforce. HTE engaged incumbent suppliers, under contract or with a history of delivering workplace supplies, on the Framework. These suppliers participated in a series of discussions. The focus was to understand current performance, explore innovation, improvements, and any new offerings they can bring to the market. Assessing scalability and flexibility, can they adapt to changing demand or new sustainability goals. HTE also engaged external suppliers, charitable organisations simultaneously outside the current Workplace Supply Solution Framework to offer fresh perspectives, ideas, capabilities, and insights. Across the PME, HTE explored themes like: Sustainability (eco-friendly packaging, carbon footprint reduction), technology integration (smart ordering systems, inventory tracking, AI-driven demand forecasting), diversity and inclusion opportunities to work with SMEs, social enterprises, or minority-owned businesses. Value-added services and potential for cost savings This insight feeds directly into the next phase with a much stronger foundation.
