Summary of the contracting process

The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, acting through the UK Health Security Agency, has awarded a contract for the supply of Mpox vaccines. This procurement process falls under the healthcare industry and involves the supply of vaccines within the UK and its territories. The procurement stage has been completed, with the contract awarded to Bavarian Nordic A/S on 12th September 2024. The procurement method used is a limited procedure due to the technical reason that only one manufacturer, Bavarian Nordic A/S, is approved for this specific vaccine in the UK.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for companies involved in vaccine production and healthcare delivery services. It is particularly suited for large pharmaceutical manufacturers who can meet the stringent regulatory requirements and supply chain demands of the UK healthcare system. Given the scale and the critical nature of the vaccine supply, businesses with robust production capabilities and the ability to deliver large quantities efficiently would be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders.
