Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust (BHSCT) has completed the procurement process for the supply of MIGALASTAT Capsules. This award process, classified under the CPV category of "Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products", falls within the procurement category of goods. The contract, which was tendered through a limited procurement method without prior publication due to the protection of exclusive rights, was valued at £950,000. The effective procurement stage is the award, with the contract officially signed on 4th February 2025. The procured goods will be delivered to the Belfast Health & Social Care Trust - Pharmacy, located in the United Kingdom (UKN region). The main objective is to procure branded patent-protected medicines essential to patient care, which are exclusively available from a single supplier, Amicus Therapeutics.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the pharmaceutical sector, particularly those with exclusive rights to patented medicines. The procurement method employed reflects the necessity of sourcing specialised medical products due to their patent protections, making it an attractive opportunity for firms holding similar exclusive rights. Companies with a focus on innovative pharmaceutical product development and distribution are well-suited to compete in such procurement processes, which enforce high-quality standards and exclusive market provisions that can drive business growth and establish strong market positions.
