£2,000,000,000 — published in the notice, and more than 50× anything this buyer has previously awarded (their largest of 29 published awards is £135,600,000). Check it against the ITT pack before relying on it.

When this comes round again

NHS Commercial Solutions has published 5 Medical Equipment & Pharmaceuticals notices, about every 27 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around August 2027.

34% of NHS Commercial Solutions’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →
