UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency is in the planning phase of a public procurement process for the supply of the Meningococcal ACWY vaccine slated for 2027. As a central government public authority located in London at 10 South Colonnade, the agency is seeking the provision of vaccines under the goods category. The process falls under the legal framework established by the UKPGA 2023/54. Potential suppliers should note the future notice date of 31 July 2026, indicating the engagement timeline. This planned tender has an estimated contract period from 1 August 2027 to 30 July 2029, with possible extensions until 2031, underscoring a substantial potential duration for successful bidders.

This procurement offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialised in vaccine manufacturing and supply, particularly those able to meet central government standards and expectations. Given the value withheld due to commercial sensitivity, companies with experience in high-value, sensitive contracts could find this tender advantageous. The vaccine supply market, particularly those dealing in vaccines, such as entities recognised under the CPV classification 33651600, would be well-suited to compete in this tender. Competitive businesses that can align with the delivery schedules and possess the capability for potential contract renewals would likely find this solicitation to be a lucrative opportunity.
