Background
Buying Solutions have been working with the health sector since our inception in 2001.
In 2009 non-clinical goods and services transfered from NHS PASA (Purchasing and Supply Agency) and existing NHS PASA framework agreements remain in place, as do the Terms & Conditions for any current agreements.
To maintain continuity of service, over 50 key procurement staff transferred from NHS PASA to Buying Solutions, so you’ll be working with a highly skilled and enhanced procurement team that understands the priorities of health sector purchasing to help you achieve your targets
We deliver a fast, efficient, EU-compliant route to market that meets the requirements of the health sector, large or small. There is no need to carry out tenders via the Official Journal for the European Union (OJEU).
