THE COMMON SERVICES AGENCY (MORE COMMONLY KNOWN AS NHS NATIONAL SERVICES SCOTLAND) ("THE AUTHORITY")

This public procurement record has 2 releases in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process focuses on the supply of Trientine Dihydrochloride 300mg capsules to Health Boards across NHS Scotland. This initiative is managed by The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland, with its headquarters located in Edinburgh, UK. The tender was initiated on 30th March 2017, following a limited procurement method where the award procedure did not require prior publication of a call for competition. The contract has an initial duration of two years, with an option for a further extension of up to twelve months.

This contract presents significant opportunities for pharmaceutical companies, particularly those specialising in the manufacture and supply of health-related goods. Businesses equipped to respond to the demands of public health contracts, especially in the field of pharmaceutical supplies and related services, will find this tender particularly relevant. Given the limited procurement method, those with unique qualifications or exclusive rights to supply Trientine Dihydrochloride may benefit from a less competitive bidding environment, allowing for strategic growth within the lucrative NHS supply chain.
