Yes and no. They've created Supply Chain Coordination Ltd. as a non-profit organisation to provide a standardised service but trusts are not obliged to use it, and the warehousing and distribution for SCCL is all outsourced. A lot of the non-pharma WnD used to be with DHL but my current client (Unipart Logistics) won the tender two years ago. Its keeping me employed so its working fine for me SCCL buys all the stock so if any container loads of dodgy face masks from overseas get procured its nowt to do with us - we just put it in a very big shed full of very long shelves.
