When this comes round again

NHS England's Medical Equipment & Pharmaceuticals cycle is past due — it ran about every 8 months across 3 notices, and the door is open now. It may re-tender at any time.

77% of NHS England’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 →

Matched against the notice text, so this is a floor — the tender pack will demand things the notice never mentions. “Says must” means the quoted sentence itself used obligation language; anything ambiguous is left as a mention.
