Summary of the contracting process

The Department of Health & Social Care purchased corporate influenza vaccination vouchers for its staff. The service enables staff to obtain flu vaccinations through a network of up to 3,500 high-street outlets across the country, with particular coverage around the department’s central hubs in London and Leeds. This is a national employee vaccination service, combining the provision of vaccine vouchers with access to participating pharmacies or other high-street providers. The procurement was classified as health services and influenza vaccines.

The procurement has been awarded to H&G Healthcare, a Bradford-based supplier, and the contract is active. The Department used a below-threshold limited competition. The single lot is complete. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £12,250. The contract includes an option for the department to buy an additional 400 vouchers if demand is high. The award is active; no separate award date or evaluation criteria are stated in the published process data.

For suppliers considering this buyer’s recurring staff vaccination requirement, the award demonstrates demand for a voucher-based flu vaccination service that can provide broad national access, with particular reach around London and Leeds. A credible competitor would need to source and administer corporate vaccination vouchers and maintain access to a substantial high-street delivery network across the country. The contract’s additional-voucher option also indicates that suppliers should be able to accommodate increased demand. H&G Healthcare, an SME, was selected through limited competition for a single-lot health service. This provides evidence that a specialist healthcare supplier can deliver the requirement at modest scale; competitors would need relevant service capability and sufficient provider coverage to meet staff needs across the department’s locations.
