Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust undertook a limited procurement process for the supply of Nusinerin (Spinraza) from Biogen Idec Ltd, classified under medical equipment and pharmaceuticals. The contract is valued at £525,000 and was signed on 9 June 2022. The procurement was initiated as part of a tender, with the contract status marked as active. A single bid was received for this procurement, which was crucial for patient care due to the unique nature of the branded medicine involved. The procurement took place in Belfast, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a distinctive opportunity for businesses involved in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly those specialising in patented medications or medical supplies. Given the nature of the procurement method, which restricted participation to a single supplier due to the exclusive rights linked to the product, businesses with expertise in similar branded medicines or those capable of innovating within a protected market may find strategic pathways for growth, particularly in dealings with public health institutions involved in specialised care.
