Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency (commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland) has recently completed a public procurement process for the supply of egg-based quadrivalent influenza vaccines for the 2020/21 Seasonal Influenza campaign, aimed at General Practitioners and Hospitals across NHS Scotland. The procurement was conducted using a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the uniqueness of the product, as only one manufacturer can supply a vaccine suitable for children aged from 6 months. The contract was signed on 19 March 2020 and has an estimated value of £63,360. The delivery location is specified as Movianto UK Ltd, Haydock, WA11 9D.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors, particularly those that specialise in vaccine production or distribution. Companies with expertise in producing specialised health products, particularly for children or specific immune-related applications, would be well-suited to engage with such procurement opportunities. The successful bidder for this contract was Aventis Pharma Ltd t/a Sanofi, indicating a competitive market with the potential for other businesses to enter and innovate in future procurement processes related to health services.
