Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council is planning a procurement for the supply of nicotine replacement therapy, including patches, gum, lozenges, inhalers, or sprays. The procurement falls under the "goods" category, specifically targeting nicotine substitutes, with a total estimated contract value of £6,000,000. The project is at the planning stage, with the tender set to begin its procurement period on 1st November 2027, ending on 31st October 2030. Prior to this, stakeholders can expect a future notice by 13th January 2027. The primary region for the delivery will be within the UKF1 zone in the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for suppliers specializing in pharmaceutical and health products, particularly those with expertise in nicotine substitutes. It could be especially advantageous for businesses keen on expanding their footprint in public health initiatives or those with innovative solutions to support smoking cessation efforts. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with relevant experience and the ability to scale on demand would find this competition relevant, particularly if they can provide cost-effective and quality solutions to meet sub-central government requirements.
