Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, also known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is conducting an open tender for a Framework Agreement titled "Antibiotic, Antiviral & Genito Urinary Medicines." This procurement, classified under pharmaceutical products, covers a contract value of approximately £54,927,224 for the supply of vital medicines across health boards in NHS Scotland. The tender stage is currently active, with submission deadlines set for 7 February 2022, and the awarded contracts expected to have a duration of 24 months, with the possibility of a further 24-month extension.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the pharmaceutical sector, particularly those specialising in antibiotic and antiviral products. Companies capable of meeting the stringent quality and logistics criteria outlined in the tender documentation—and with valid UK Marketing Authorisation—are well-positioned to compete. Both large-scale pharmaceutical manufacturers and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate compliance with industry standards will find value in participating, particularly given the requirement for community benefits as part of the procurement process.
