    Brief

The framework aims to establish a standardized procurement process for NHS and public sector organizations across Wales, ensuring consistent quality and cost-effective supply of these essential consumable items used in healthcare settings. Suppliers should be established manufacturers or distributors of medical-grade absorbent products with the capability to meet All Wales compliance standards and delivery requirements.
