A new approach to support growthTrusts across England have a range of requirements, and we need frameworks to match. This particular framework used to be very limited to just a handful of suppliers and a narrow range. We want to support improved retail spaces in healthcare environments, and have competitive options. After engaging closely with trusts throughout the process to better understand what was needed, and also with existing and possible new suppliers, awards have been made and we are in the launch period.The result includes some innovative solutions, with recycling schemes and 24-hour food vending, as well as bespoke financing methods such as leases and rentals.Due to launch November 2020.
Framework Spotlight:Hot beverages and vending solutions
The new framework• A greatly expanded range which answers to the
needs of NHS trusts• New equipment like water coolers now available• Hot beverage vending• Coffee shop concepts• Chilled food vending• Reverse vending (bottle deposit schemes)
