About

Birmingham City Council awarded a contract to AMS Sanderson Ltd for the supply and distribution of toothbrush packs for children and vulnerable adults in the community.

The contract involved producing and delivering three types of toothbrush packs at high volume: adult packs (1 adult toothbrush, 100ml paraben-free toothpaste with minimum 1350 ppm fluoride, custom leaflet, sealed packet), child packs (1 child toothbrush, 100ml paraben-free toothpaste with minimum 1350 ppm fluoride, custom leaflet, sealed packet), and child packs with timers (1 child toothbrush, 100ml paraben-free toothpaste with minimum 1350 ppm fluoride, custom leaflet, 1 two-minute timer, sealed packet).

The scope included printing leaflets to promote oral health and distributing products to 475 delivery sites across Birmingham, including every primary school, with delivery to education settings and support organisations rather than directly to individuals.

Proof of delivery was required, and the supplier was responsible for losses or damage in transit.

The contract was executed in two phases: Phase 1 delivered 12,500 adult packs to 10 sites and 4,000 child packs with timers to 156 nurseries by 30th August 2022; Phase 2 delivered 36,600 child packs to 306 schools between 26th September and 21st October 2022.

The contract value was £50,961, and the contract period was 4 months from 18th July 2022 to 10th November 2022.
