Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health & Social Care Trust has completed a direct procurement process for the essential pharmaceutical product, Teduglutide (Homecare) 5 mg Powder and Solvent. This procurement ensures the continuity of patient care through homecare support services. The procurement, conducted under the UKPGA 2023/54 legal framework, was awarded to HEALTHNET HOMECARE (UK) LIMITED, a large supplier located in Swadlincote, UK. The contract commenced on 6th June 2025 and will run until 30th June 2027, encompassing pharmaceutical product delivery within the region of UKN (Northern Ireland). The procurement process was a direct award, which means it bypassed competitive tendering due to the necessity of securing essential goods without interruption.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical solutions and homecare support, particularly for established suppliers capable of ensuring robust service continuity and potentially expanding their market presence. While the direct award was due to non-competitive reasons, such tenders can inspire other companies to position themselves as reliable contractors for healthcare bodies in need of specialised pharmaceutical products or services. Companies with expertise in logistics, supply chain management, and patient care support would find themselves especially well-suited for future opportunities created by similar procurement needs.
