The Authority is exploring the potential to establish a direct contractual arrangement with a chlorine tablet supplier. The purpose of the contract is to ensure a resilient and prioritised supply of chlorine disinfectant combination tablets with detergent 1.7g NaDCC in the event of a national pandemic or public health emergency. As part of this arrangement, the supplier would be required to hold sufficient raw materials (NaDCC) and packaging components to enable production of circa. 9-30 million chlorine tablets (“materials”). *This volume range is an estimate only and subject to final confirmation at the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage.
The arrangement would operate independently of the Authority’s existing Chlorine Framework [2024/S 000-039165] and must ensure timely delivery continuity in the event of a national pandemic or public health emergency conditions, including those resulting in UK border closures (“emergency conditions”).
Indicative Requirement
The Authority intends to enter into a direct contractual agreement with a chlorine tablet supplier. To be considered, a supplier must:
As part of the arrangement,
