Summary of the contracting process

Belfast Health & Social Care Trust procured Cutaquig immunoglobulin for homecare use. This is a medicines supply requirement, with homecare support forming part of the stated purpose: the Trust said supply from the selected supplier was needed to maintain continuity of patient care. The procurement covers one requirement rather than separately described lots. The medicine is categorised as a pharmaceutical product (CPV 33600000). Delivery is recorded for the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery place is identified. The requirement is specifically for Cutaquig immunoglobulin homecare, rather than a general medicines or homecare service contract.

The procurement was awarded to Healthnet Homecare (UK) Limited through a direct award, with the Trust citing the need for continuity of patient care and stating that the lack of competition did not artificially narrow the procurement. The award was made on 17 June 2026, and the contract was signed on 7 July 2026. Its value was £990,000. The contract period was from 7 July 2026 to 30 June 2028, but it was terminated on 24 September 2026; the stated termination classification is “other”, with no further reason recorded. There was one lot, marked complete. No eligibility requirements or evaluation criteria are set out in the procurement details.

For suppliers considering a future Cutaquig homecare requirement for Belfast Health & Social Care Trust, this award demonstrates demand for a named immunoglobulin medicine supplied with homecare support, where continuity of patient care is central. The selected supplier was a large homecare provider, indicating that the requirement was met through a supplier operating at a substantial scale. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate reliable access to Cutaquig and the operational ability to support patients receiving it at home, while sustaining continuity of supply and care. The Trust used a direct award on continuity grounds, so suppliers should recognise that an established supply relationship may be material to this specific requirement. The procurement concerns this medicine and associated homecare support, not medicines provision generally.
