UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, conducted by the Department of Health & Social Care, entailed the awarding of a contract for the provision of corporate flu vouchers for the 2025-2026 period. This tender falls under the health services industry category and required services accessible across numerous high-street outlets within the UK, focusing on London and Leeds. This contract was awarded to Flu Xpress Ltd as part of a limited competition procurement method, reflecting a specialised light-touch regime. Key dates include the contract commencement on 25th September 2025, ending on 31st March 2026, with the contract having been signed on 22nd September 2025. The procurement has been finalised and is in the contract award stage, with Flu Xpress Ltd as the designated supplier.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, specifically those equipped to handle the distribution of health-related products such as influenza vaccines at scale. Large companies that can accommodate a national distribution of up to 1,200 flu vouchers, with an option to expand by an additional 400 vouchers, could benefit from this continued government collaboration. The structured and specific requirement indicates an opportunity primarily suitable for established suppliers in the health services arena capable of meeting the logistical demands and regulatory compliance required in delivering such services. Businesses with a strong operational presence in or near major DHSC hubs like London and Leeds would be particularly well-suited to engage competitively with similar tenders in the future.
