Don't know about paracetamol but remember reading about lightbulbs and how a contractor was contracted to oversee and a normal fluorescent strip light in a ward that would cost retail about £25.00 was in the region of £180.00 , the size makes it so difficult to manage , should be a driver as buying in bulk to bring prices down. However we are bloody lucky to have it and they have been amazing throughout this pandemic , cant praise them enough.
Don't paracetamol prescriptions cost NHS like £11 or whatever? Ridiculous

Will they go for a hat trick this coming Wednesday ?

UPdate from Novcyt just now on Twitter.
I'm disappointed there was no RNS this morning, it blows my personal theory of what was going on away, my next guess is that the answer ties in with the other contracts coming to end soon.
There is a difference between qualifying for listing as a supplier on NHS Supply Chain (a portal that run procurement checks to provide NHS budget holders a list of accepted suppliers from who they can order what are usually regular supplies eg the gloves you mention) and procurement by the DHSC and some parts of the NHS via a public procurement process as listed on Bidstack in the way other contracts with central government are procured. Not an expert, but my understanding is that a different set of protocols apply, the Supply Chain would vet suppliers and then compare the goods they put forward against alternatives bearing in mind NICE & other guidelines on efficacy & cost). Central government contracts are often for projects, services or pieces of work that may at least be bespoken & might be unique - see what is listed on Bidstack. The publicity is an important control to obtain value for money and transparency in contract awards. The covid experience has been carried out in pressing circumstances, with criticism of some awards, particularly the very public errors & ineffective purchases that have been made but as time goes on the strength of the process shows itself for example in the 22bn tender being bid for.
Hi wilson hope your getting plenty of rest ......do primerdesugn .microgen bioproducts ....sub ....maybe ...
Hi wilson hope your getting plenty of rest ....i suspect there are quite a few contracts on bidstats that use primerdesign microgen bioproducts as sub contact supplier ...worldwide

Quality always costs more and sells. Do you really wants cheap stuff made by China, which falls apart, when taking out of the packages.
For years and years you could always sell things to Nhs for more, crude example surgical gloves from a company son was working for we're going in at 3 times the market price!! That's when they weren't hard to get.
Now correct me if I'm wrong but with bidstats/dps (dynamic purchasing) we are having to sell at our cheapest price to Nhs.
If this is the case are we finally seeing a govt over a period of time getting truer value for money for the Nhs? Can anybody with a bit more knowledge agree/disagree with this??
Troublesome steady:)))
