Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concerns the award of a contract by The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), for the management and advisory services related to the Extended Flu and Covid Vaccination programme. This tender was initiated under a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication due to the urgency of the situation arising from the Covid-19 pandemic. The contract, valued at £2,320,000, was signed on 10th September 2020, and services are to be delivered across Scotland. The status of the tender is complete and it falls under the health industry category.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in public health management and advisory services, particularly those with experience in pandemic-related initiatives.
