Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Common Services Agency, more commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), which is located in Edinburgh, UK. The tender, titled "Emtricitabine / Rilpivirine / Tenofovir Disoproxil (Eviplera®)", pertains to the supply of specific medicine tablets required by NHS Scotland. This procurement has reached the award stage as of February 17, 2022, with a total contract value of £3,408,156. The procurement method employed was a limited procedure, meaning that no prior publication of a call for competition was necessary due to existing patent protections for the medicines involved.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector, particularly those specialising in medicinal products under patent protections. Companies capable of supplying high-quality pharmaceuticals, especially those with experience in NHS contracts or public sector healthcare supply chains, would be well-positioned to benefit from this procurement. Given that only one bid was received, suppliers should consider exploring NHS Scotland's procurement strategies for future opportunities in this domain.
