Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is currently finalising a procurement process for the title "NSSCOVID-19 -224 Extended Flu and Covid Vaccination programme management and advisory services". This contract, initiated through a limited procurement method due to extreme urgency related to the Covid-19 pandemic, falls within the health services industry and is situated in Edinburgh, Scotland. The award was signed on 13th August 2020, with the contract value amounting to £640,000. The procurement was approved for reasons of extreme urgency, as stipulated in Regulation 33(1)(c) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses seeking to expand in the health service sector, particularly those with expertise in programme management and advisory services. Large firms like KPMG, which successfully won the contract, have established a competitive edge in this sensitive area, but there may also be opportunities for smaller firms with specialised skills in healthcare consultation or management. Those able to demonstrate a strong track record in crisis management and service delivery within public health frameworks are particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders of this nature.
