About our Medical Consumables Strategy

AHG employs 1 national contract to supply the products that come under the Medical Consumables category. We have provided the details within the tender attachments tab, a Price Bid spreadsheet to show the products listed and the quality required. These are delivered to our local sites as required every week with an OTIF of 98%. Our Local sites will be placing PO through our ?Market Place? System, which is an e-catalogue.

Who are we looking for

We are looking for providers who can supply the products listed in the Medical Consumables Category in line with our quality requirements. This will be at the lowest overall cost but highest available quality. These will need to be delivered to our Local sites with a minimum OTIF of 98%.

This service will incorporate the use of our e-catalogue ?Market Place? to order goods and the contractor will need to be able to update this system every month. Anchor also uses a purchase-to-pay system, which looks for a 3 way match between the PO, Invoice and GRN. Please refer to the One Advanced Pack in the attachments section for further information.

We have provided a snapshot of the top 10 purchase items. This list is non-exhaustive and full detail is provided in the attachments section.

The delivery element of this contract will not be exclusive, and Anchor may use other suppliers for specific sites where the national supplier cannot provide the service or has failed to provide a solution with the parameters of an agreed SLA.

Delivery of the products will be on a weekly basis, with the home choosing their nominated delivery day between Monday- Friday.
