Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by Portsmouth City Council, pertains to the provision of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) products for wellbeing service group sessions. With Portsmouth as the designated location, this procurement falls under the goods category and is classified within the health industry. The process, which started with an official contract signing on 5th January 2026, has since advanced to the awarding stage, culminating in an active contract set to run until 30th April 2027. Valued at £75,000, this contract was awarded following a 'Below threshold - unknown' procurement method and involves Alliance Healthcare (Distribution) Limited as the supplier.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in health and wellness products, particularly those offering nicotine substitutes. Companies with the capacity to supply such goods may find potential growth avenues, especially those adept at handling contracts within the public authority framework. Large suppliers, similar to Alliance Healthcare, stand to benefit by expanding their market reach within sub-central government procurement channels. Additionally, established businesses with experience in managing public sector contracts and supply chains in the UK, particularly in health services, would be ideally positioned to capitalise on such opportunities.
