Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the supply of IV Cannula for pandemic preparedness for the financial year 2024/2025. The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, acting through the UK Health Security Agency, is facilitating this procurement. The process falls under the "Medical consumables" industry category, with deliveries required across various regions of the UK. This procurement stage is complete and culminated in a direct award to B. Braun Medical Limited, signed on 30th October 2025. The contract was placed under a limited procurement method, which entailed an award without prior publication due to the nature of the replenishment requirement within the NHS supply chain framework. The procurement rationale noted it fell outside the scope of some standard applications due to its urgent public interest nature.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses engaged in medical goods supply, particularly those capable of providing IV Cannula and related products. Large suppliers with experience in dealing with NHS frameworks are particularly well-suited to benefit from such contracts. The UK Health Security Agency's procurement provides an avenue to establish a lasting relationship with a major public health body, thereby facilitating growth and expansion within the public sector supply chain. The direct award approach signals potential for future procurement opportunities, particularly for firms demonstrating reliability and capability in critical health infrastructure supplies.
