RFI Soft Market Testing for Blood Collection Services - Arm Cleansing Systems

NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) is seeking to potentially re-tender Blood Collection Services' Arm Cleansing System products and services. We would like to hear from organisations that would be willing to share and explore new ways to develop a safe, cost effective, sustainable and flexible service related to this project. To assist NHSBT in the development of their outline business case proposals and in formulation of procurement documentation, the NHSBT is seeking, and would be grateful for, written responses to a number of questions set out in this Soft Market Testing Questionnaire contained within this Request For Information. Some of the main areas being explored are the following, but this is not an exhaustive list: Supplier's experience and knowledge in terms of delivering products and services to other countries eg, Australian, American Red Cross, Canadian and Flanders Blood Services. What experience do you have with other countries' practices and describe how the non-UK service solutions can comply with by JPAC (Joint United Kingdom (UK) Blood Transfusion and Tissue Transplantation Services Professional Advisory Committee) and best practice in skin disinfection as defined in evidence based practice in Infection Control Guidelines Version 3 (EPIC3) commissioned by the United Kingdom Department of Health (DoH) which recommends a solution of chlorhexidine and alcohol should be used.
