Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust has completed the procurement process for the supply of KAFTRIO SACHETS, a pharmaceutical product within the "Medical equipment, pharmaceuticals and personal care products" category. The procurement, identified by tender ID DACPM2024-71, was conducted through a limited procedure without prior publication due to proprietary intellectual property rights. The contract was awarded on 23rd October 2024 to Vertex Pharmaceuticals, a large scale supplier based in London, and is valued at GBP 485,000. The procurement relates to goods to be delivered to the Belfast Health & Social Care Trust - Pharmacy, located in Belfast (UKN). The procurement process was initiated and managed by the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, with Norma Moore acting as the contact point for the buying organisation.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, particularly those able to supply proprietary and patent-protected medicines. Companies with exclusive distribution rights or those engaged in research and development of specialised pharmaceutical products would find such procurements particularly advantageous. Participation in such contracts can enhance business credibility, expand market reach, and strengthen positions within the healthcare sector. Since this procurement was conducted under limited competition frameworks, businesses need to focus on building exclusive partnerships and maintaining high standards of proprietary product offerings to be competitive in similar future opportunities.
