Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involved the Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust as the buying organisation, focusing on the "Supply of Nonchemotherapy Compounded Monoclonal Antibodies." The procurement falls under the pharmaceutical products industry and targeted goods. This tender was part of a ranked framework divided into three lots, including Infliximab, Vedolizumab, and Natalizumab Compounded Bags, intended for the South East Pharmacy Procurement Service. The tender was advertised via an open procedure, and the stage recently completed was the award and contract phase, with contracts having been signed on 3rd October 2025. The procurement process adhered to the CELEX legal basis 32014L0024, emphasizing compliance with EU standards, and involved an option for an extension for two additional 12-month periods.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for organisations in the pharmaceutical manufacturing and healthcare service industries. SMEs and large-scale companies that focus on producing compounded monoclonal antibody products are well-suited to compete, given the emphasis on technical compliance, shelf life, social value, and cost as award criteria. With awardees such as Qualasept Ltd, Quantum Aseptic Services, Sciensus Pharma Services Limited, and Baxter Healthcare Limited, it highlights a competitive landscape providing a chance for businesses aiming to engage with the NHS Trusts across the Thames Valley, Wessex, and South East Coast regions. The framework's adaptability to include successor NHS bodies and affiliates further extends opportunities for businesses within integrated care systems and primary care networks.
