Summary of the contracting process

The Hertfordshire NHS Procurement is currently conducting a tender for "The provision of Prepared Dose Banded Batch Aseptically Prepared Drugs," valued at £35 million. This procurement falls under the pharmacy services category and is actively progressing towards contract placement, with a tender period that ends on 30th August 2019. The contract is set to commence on 1st February 2020 and will run until 31st January 2024. The procurement method is an open procedure, indicating broad participation for interested suppliers, and the service will primarily be delivered at East and North Hertfordshire facilities, notably Lister Hospital in Stevenage.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, particularly those with capabilities in aseptic preparation and batch production of pharmaceuticals. Companies that can demonstrate innovation in service delivery or efficiency improvements will find this is an appealing prospect, especially given the strategic need to enhance aseptic capacity as identified by NHS England. The multi-year partnership approach allows bidders to invest in collaborative processes, which could translate into stable, long-term contracts and an increased market presence within the NHS supply chain.

Notice Information

Notice Title

ENHT - The provision of Prepared Dose Banded Batch Aseptically Prepared Drugs

Notice Description

We are inviting tenders for the provision of aseptically prepared, dose banded batch chemotherapy to ENHT (Lister and Mount Vernon) in a working partnership. Partnership means an agreement to work together over a multi-year period looking to improve the services and deliver efficiencies year on year through investing in people, equipment and process. There is a national shortage of aseptic capacity, a situation which has been highlighted and reviewed jointly with NHS England and other stakeholders. The successful Bidder must meet the strategic need of the Trust and NHS England to increase the available aseptic capacity through investment in incremental production capability.
