Summary of the contracting process

The Southern Health and Social Care Trust has completed the procurement process for "Revcovi," an enzyme replacement therapy essential for treating severe combined immune deficiency. This direct award process, in compliance with UK legislation, was concluded because CHIESI LIMITED holds the exclusive intellectual property rights for this product. Situated in Portadown, Northern Ireland, the procurement process commenced with a contract signing on 15th September 2025, and the contract is active until 14th September 2028. The procurement falls under the pharmaceutical products category and emphasises the need for a seamless delivery of critical healthcare services within the UKN region.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for large pharmaceutical enterprises that deal with exclusive and patented products. Businesses that can demonstrate similar exclusive rights and fulfil specialised medical needs are particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts. The Southern Health and Social Care Trust's reliance on single-source suppliers highlights the potential for companies that secure intellectual property rights to become indispensable partners in public healthcare procurements, potentially expanding their market reach and solidifying their position in the healthcare sector.
