      <link>https://www.gets.govt.nz//PHARMAC/ExternalTenderDetails.htm?id=34948863</link>
      <description>&lt;table&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;RFx ID: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;34948863&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Organisation: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Pharmaceutical Management Agency&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Open date: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Wednesday, 16 September 2026 9:30 AM +12:00&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Close date: &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Wednesday, 14 October 2026 2:00 PM +13:00&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Categories: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;42000000 - Medical Equipment and Accessories and Supplies&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Region: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;New Zealand&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Overview: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Pharmac is running a simple competitive market process (ROI) for electronic and mechanical medical gas vaporisers used in Health New Zealand (“Health NZ”) hospitals. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The purpose of this activity is to support a more consistent and transparent approach to the procurement of gas vaporisers, ensuring purchasing decisions are informed, comparable, and deliver public value across the public health system.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Gas vaporisers are specialised medical devices that add a precise and controlled concentration of volatile anaesthetic agents (i.e., sevoflurane, desflurane, and isoflurane) to the fresh gas flow of an anaesthesia breathing circuit. These devices are clinically essential in a range of healthcare delivery settings. Given their importance, Pharmac sees value in focusing on a procurement process that would secure solutions that are clinically fit-for-purpose, cost-effective, and commercially sustainable over time. Pharmac is interested in procuring both mechanical and electronic vaporisers. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Previously, gas vaporisers have been supplied as part of bundled arrangements linked to the anaesthetic agents. This opportunity seeks to establish arrangements specific to vaporisers, enabling clearer visibility of costs and a more consistent, transparent approach to sourcing them as a component of the anaesthesia ecosystem.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</description>
