Summary of the contracting process

NHS England has initiated a modification of an existing framework agreement for the supply of Human Immunoglobulin and Anti-D Immunoglobulin. This procurement, initially valued at £1.2 billion, has been active since July 2021 and is now being extended until December 2025 to ensure the continuity of supply during a transitional period. The procurement category is goods, specifically immunoglobulins, with the contracting process at the award stage, involving the suppliers Bio Products Laboratory Ltd, CSL Behring UK Ltd, Grifols UK Ltd, and LFB Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. The framework's value is being increased to an estimated £1.6 billion due to higher demand and inflationary pressures.

This tender modification offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical supplies, particularly those involved in the production and distribution of immunoglobulins. Companies with robust capabilities in managing and transitioning pharmaceutical supplies will find substantial growth prospects in this framework. Key suppliers who can ensure reliable product delivery during the extended period will have an advantage, fostering partnerships with NHS England to contribute towards critical healthcare needs. The procurement method used is limited, without prior publication of a call for competition, indicating a bespoke and urgent requirement for continuity in patient care.
