Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe contracting authority is establishing a framework agreement with two economic operators for the successive supply of primary hip prostheses and associated prosthetic components to the health areas of the Galician Health Service (Servizo Galego de Saúde). The framework agreement does not require further competitive tendering, since the terms governing the contracts based on it are already set out in the agreement itself. The products covered are six types of primary hip prostheses, including straight stems with partial or full osseointegration coating with uncemented cups, trochanter-preserving stems with metaphyseal or hydroxyapatite coatings with simple or dual mobility bearing pairs, and cemented stems with polished or matte finish with uncemented cups, all as specified in the tender documents.
