Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves The Common Services Agency (NHS National Services Scotland), based in Edinburgh, seeking suppliers for Elvitegravir / Cobicistat / Emtricitabine / Tenofovir Disoproxil (Stribild®). This process is classified under the health industry category and is currently at the Award stage, with the contract having been signed on 17 February 2022 for a total value of £1,457,933. The awarded supplier is Gilead Sciences Ltd, and the contract is designed to supply these medications to NHS Scotland entities across the region, ensuring compliance with procurement practices outlined in the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. The procurement method employed was 'limited', meaning there was no prior public announcement before the contract award.

This tender presents significant opportunities for large pharmaceutical companies that specialise in providing medicines governed by patent protections. Businesses with the capability to produce or supply highly regulated pharmaceutical products may find this contract appealing, particularly those already engaged in supply chains with healthcare authorities. With the growing demand for health-related supplies, particularly those under protected rights, companies equipped to meet these standards can leverage this contract's framework to enhance their competitive edge and expand their market presence within the NHS supply system.
