Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply of an egg-based quadrivalent influenza vaccine is being conducted by the Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS). This tender is categorised under the health industry, specifically for healthcare goods, and is located in Edinburgh, UK. Currently in the award stage, the contract has a total value of £16,000 and was signed on 5th April 2022.

Companies with a focus on public health, particularly those licensed to supply medical products for paediatric use, would be particularly well-suited to participate in future tenders in this domain. As the contract is currently held by Aventis Pharma Ltd t/a Sanofi, it highlights the importance of competition and the need for alternative suppliers in the market.
