Selling to the NHS in Scotland
The NHS in Scotland spends over £1.5bn a year on the provision of a wide range of goods and services.
This event will help suppliers to improve their understanding of the market and the opportunities that are on offer.
The NHS buys a diverse range of goods and services from catering to clinical equipment, from needles and syringes to electricity and fuel, and from bed linen to ambulances. If your company can provide the products or services required by the NHS, then you need to fully understand how health procurement operates.
A one-day seminar for current and potential NHS Suppliers
Why should I attend this event?
Since 2004 health care procurement in Scotland has been carried out by National Procurement, working with health service stakeholders, patient groups and the supplier market. National Procurement has developed national contracts worth over £500m to the health care supply chain, thereby returning in excess of £70m in saving for further investment in health care for Scotland.
The NHS buys virtually every type of service and supply, thus affording opportunities for virtually every type of business. This event is designed to provide new and current suppliers with a greater understanding of how the NHS market operates and how it is currently developing.
Do not miss this chance to get an insight into the latest developments within Scottish NHS procurement, as well as guidance on how to access this lucrative marketplace.
What will you learn?
The event will examine the various areas of health care procurement in Scotland and how each fits into the overall purchasing picture, giving you a better understanding of how to enter the market and develop your marketing strategy. In addition, there will be an explanation of how Scottish procurement regulations affect suppliers when tendering for contracts. These regulations can be quite daunting, and you need to know how to work within the rules in order to avoid missing out on potential opportunities.
