Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process spearheaded by NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) concerns the supply of Nicotine Replacement Therapy Products. This procurement, categorised under 'Pharmaceutical products,' aims to cater to the needs of entities formed under the NHS Scotland Act 1978 and related Integrated Joint Boards in the UK region. The process, currently in the award stage, involves multiple lots including patches, oral products, inhalators, and sprays. The awards for this framework, signed on February 2026, involve various suppliers like MK Medicals (UK) and Dr Reddy's Laboratories (UK) Ltd among others. The framework agreement, valued at £18,446,000 GBP, utilises an open procedure and offers a potential extension of another 24 months. Key considerations in the tender process included sustainability criteria and pricing, with the deadline for submissions on 17th October 2025.

The tender provides lucrative avenues for businesses specializing in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly those focusing on nicotine substitutes. Given the positive emphasis on sustainability and technical quality in selection criteria, businesses capable of innovation in packaging and recycling will find favourable grounds. Moreover, the inclusion of community benefits as a mandatory requirement extends further opportunities for businesses aiming to enhance their footprint in social responsibility. Suppliers with certifications like BS EN ISO 9001 and products meeting the Medical Devices Regulations will be positioned strongly in competing for this framework. The competitive field allows up to five successful participants per lot, promising robust competition in the sector, beneficial both for small to medium enterprises and large corporations. Businesses looking to expand within the NHS Scotland network can leverage this tender to consolidate their presence in the UK market.
