        <title>Supplier Managed Inventory - Chlorine Tablets</title>
        <description>
          <p>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.</p>
          <p>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”).</p>
          <p>Indicative Requirement</p>
          <p>1.	Direct Agreement with a Supplier</p>
          <p>The Authority intends to enter into a direct contractual agreement with a chlorine tablet supplier. To be considered, a supplier must:</p>
          <p>•	Own and operate the production machinery used to manufacture the tablets;</p>
          <p>•	Be able to produce and supply chlorine tablets at scale and on demand;</p>
          <p>•	The supplier must demonstrate the ability to deliver orders reliably and without delay on a weekly basis to locations within the UK in emergency conditions, including when UK borders may be closed.</p>
          <p>2.	Emergency Stockholding Requirements</p>
          <p>As part of the arrangement,</p>
          <p>•	The supplier would be required to hold and maintain stock of raw materials (specifically including NaDCC – Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate) and all necessary packaging components;</p>
          <p>•	Stock must be held specifically for the Authority, clearly designated for its use in the emergency conditions;</p>
          <p>•	The volume of additional stockholding for the Authority may range between 9-30 million chlorine tablet’s worth of raw materials and packaging. This stockholding volume is indicative and subject to confirmation at the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage;</p>
          <p>•	All stock must be held physically at the suppliers own controlled facility;</p>
          <p>•	Materials must not be in transit, at unaffiliated third-party warehouses, or held under consignment arrangements; and</p>
          <p>•	The supplier must retain full ownership and control over these materials and components.</p>
          <p>3.	Emergency Supply and Delivery Capability</p>
          <p>The supplier must demonstrate the capacity to:</p>
          <p>•	Deliver chlorine tablets on a weekly basis, without delay to a specified UK depot as instructed by the Authority;</p>
          <p>•	Maintain delivery capability in border-closed or restricted scenarios; and</p>
          <p>•	Have the capability to produce and supply approximately 3 million tablets per week under emergency conditions. *This is an estimated volume and not a guaranteed commitment.</p>
          <p>4.	Contractual Positioning and Priority Access</p>
          <p>This contractual agreement will operate outside of the Authority’s existing Chlorine Framework. </p>
          <p>The Authority must be granted priority access to the materials during any pandemic or emergency conditions period.</p>
          <p>The supplier will be expected to sustain continuous supply of the chlorine tablets to the Authority for the full duration of the emergency conditions. </p>
          <p>Important Notes</p>
          <p>•	This is a Pre-Market Engagement notice only and not a call for competition.</p>
          <p>•	Participation in this PME does not guarantee access to future tender documentation or award.</p>
          <p>•	Final details and volumes will be confirmed at the ITT stage.</p>
