UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust has successfully completed a procurement process for the supply of flu vaccination vouchers for the 2025/26 season. The awarded contract, titled "UHN - Flu Vaccination Voucher Scheme 25/26," falls under the health services category and involves the delivery of 5,000 flu vouchers. This limited competition procurement method, conducted below the threshold, resulted in the contract being awarded to Flu Xpress, a supplier located in Windsor, United Kingdom. Contract performance is scheduled from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a gross contract value of £47,700. The contract was signed on 27th March 2025, signalling its current active status.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those offering vaccination programmes. Enterprises with the capability to deliver extensive healthcare services efficiently, and who can navigate below-threshold, limited competition procurements, would find such contracts advantageous. With the focus on flu vaccinations, providers with expertise in preventative care and the ability to supply large volumes of health-related vouchers would greatly benefit from similar future procurement initiatives. SMEs, like the awarded supplier Flu Xpress, are well-positioned to compete for these service-oriented contracts due to their flexibility and specialised capabilities.
