Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is seeking to procure a one-off purchase of 1,408 packs of Actiq OTFC 800mcg lozenges as part of its operational requirement. This procurement falls within the pharmaceuticals industry, specifically classified under CPV code 33600000. The award stage was reached on 2nd March 2021, with a total contract value of £295,680. The procurement method employed was a limited negotiated procedure without the publication of a contract notice, justified by the exclusive manufacturing rights of the supplier. The delivery of the products will take place in the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly those that manufacture or supply similar medical products. Companies that can demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements and possess relevant expertise in pharmaceutical manufacturing would be well-positioned to compete. The exclusive rights rationale indicates a high level of protection for the supplier, which may limit competition; however, those with the necessary capabilities could engage with contracting authorities for future opportunities in this niche market.
