Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health & Social Care Trust initiated a tender for the procurement of ENCORAFENIB 75 mg Hard Capsules, with the title "ENCORAFENIB 75 mg Hard Capsules 42 Capsule Pack" under the procurement procedure "Direct award". This process, identified by the tender ID DACPM2025-24, was carried out under the legal basis of the UKPGA 2023/54. The trust, located at Trust Headquarters, Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast, UK, operates under the regulations applicable to central government in Northern Ireland. The procurement began with the award stage on 9th June 2025, and a contract was awarded to Pierre Fabre Limited on 5th August 2025, with a completion status noted at a contract termination on 1st October 2025. The total value was £1,200,000 GBP.

This procurement presents opportunities for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical products, particularly those offering patented medicines essential for patient care. Although the direct award indicates limited competition due to trademark protections, companies involved in the supply of niche, patent-protected pharmaceutical products could find similar opportunities attractive, potentially leading to significant contracts. Businesses with a focus on meeting unique health care demands, especially those able to negotiate exclusive supply agreements, would find such procurements particularly beneficial for growth.
