Buying Catalogue feature updates

Filtering improvements

We’ve improved our filtering process to make it easier for buyers to find appropriate solutions and services. Buyers can also save their filter results and use them when carrying out on-catalogue competitions.

Mergers and splits

We’ve created a bespoke ordering route for buyers to purchase Associated Services that enable the reorganisation of general practices.

On-catalogue competition

We’ve digitised the on-catalogue competition process so that buyers can carry out that type of procurement online.

Global Service Recipients and planned delivery dates

We’ve streamlined the selection of Service Recipients and planned delivery dates. Both will now be applied to all items included in an order. This means buyers will only have to select Service Recipients and delivery dates once per order.

Terminate a contract

We’ve added the ability to terminate contracts created on the Buying Catalogue. This allows buyers to end contracts themselves once the supplier has been given 30 days’ notice.

NHS App integration

We now highlight which solutions integrate with the NHS App to help buyers meet their interoperability requirements.

Redesign of marketing pages and homepage

We’ve restructured our marketing pages so that buyers can find and share solution information more easily. Our homepage has been updated so that it now provides information about procurement frameworks.
