Information and formalities necessary for evaluating if the requirements are met: Bidders are requested to respond to the following in the requisite manner: Entering general PQQ supplier information. NHS Commercial Solutions utilises the NHS Supplier Information Database (sid4health) to manage and assess general pre-qualification information in the form of a profile. Candidates are requested to complete and publish their profile in sid4health as follows: i) Bidders must obtain a Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) D-U-N-S® Number to enable registration on sid4health. This normally is provided within 48 hours but may take up to 5 days for UK registered businesses, so please ensure this step is completed as early as possible in your bid submission process. The D-U-N-S® Number is the NHS recommended supplier identification number for trading with the NHS. For further information on the D&B registration process, please visit their website ( www.dnb.co.uk/duns-number.asp ). ii) Organisations must go to the following web page www.sid4health.nhs.uk/home.action . Select ‘Register Organisation’ on the left of the page and then select ‘Organisation Type’ as supplier. Key in details as shown to search for your organisation’s D-U-N-S® Number. If your organisation is not registered with D&B, please call +44 8702432344 during office hours or visit their website at the address above. iii) Upon receipt of your sid4health login details, please access the Profile Management area, create, validate and publish your sid4health organizational profile. (Organisations must publish at least one validated profile to make their profile available for buyers to view generally – see the Help page on sid4health within Profile Management for more details). iv) Organisations should ensure that they complete a full profile, in order that they can demonstrate their ability to meet the applicable short-listing criteria detailed in the PQQ. D&B data will be supplied automatically by D&B. v) On publication of the completed profile, organisations should express their interest by registering on the NHS Commercial Solutions Bravosolution e-tendering portal ( seccph.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.shtml ). The system will then challenge the bidder to enter the organisation’s D-U-N-S® Number and the relevant sid4health published profile. This will result in the bidder’s information held in the sid4health profile to be pulled into the PQQ and reduce the amount of effort required to complete this PQQ. The profile information will populate the relevant PQQ questions overnight, which can then be reviewed by the bidder prior to submission. Please note, that there will be additional questions that are specific to the project and these will require manual input within the Bravosolution tool itself. Once the bidder has completed the PQQ, it can be submitted. Bidders can complete all PQQ questions within the e-tendering portal, but it is recommended that bidders who submit multiple tenders to the NHS take the opportunity to manage their standard corporate information on the sid4health platform, which will over time reduce the amount of effort required to respond to NHS PQQs. vi) Where access to Sid4health is unavailable, please contact the sid4health Helpdesk at: help@sid4health.nhs.uk vii) For any technical support required in submitting your expression of interest or the response to the PQQ, please contact the eTendering Help-desk at +44 8003684850 or help@bravosolution.co.uk viii) The update of a Sid4health profile by a bidder organisation does not constitute an expression of interest for the advertised contract.
