The request for information on particular PPE, consumables and equipment product groups in this survey should not be construed as confirmed need for such a product. Similarly, there may be a requirement for a specific PPE, consumable and equipment product group not listed in this survey, but may form part of subsequent engagement processes. The specific needs of the department (in terms of the actual PPE, consumables and equipment products required and the associated volumes) will be confirmed in advance of any subsequent engagement processes with shortlisted suppliers.
