Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), has concluded a limited procurement process titled "Buprenorphine (Buvidal®).” This contract focuses on the supply of Buprenorphine injections specifically for NHS Scotland, with a total contract value of £1,241,412, signed on 2nd July 2021. The procurement took place in Edinburgh, under the health industry category, and was classified as a single supplier framework due to the absence of competition for this unique product manufactured by Camurus U.K.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities, particularly for suppliers of pharmaceutical goods, especially those specialising in injectable treatments. Given that Buvidal® is currently the only prolonged-release buprenorphine injectable available in the UK, this contract could be a unique opportunity for businesses interested in entering the healthcare sector, potentially paving the way for further collaborations with NHS Scotland and other healthcare entities throughout the UK.
