Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), is conducting a procurement for a cell-based quadrivalent influenza vaccine intended for Scotland's annual seasonal influenza immunisation programme. The procurement process, which is currently complete, was initiated on 5th May 2022 and featured a limited procurement method, specifically an award without prior publication of a call for competition. The successful contract, worth approximately £15,235,600, was awarded to Seqirus UK Limited, a significant player in the health industry. The delivery location for the vaccine is specified as Movianto in Haydock, and the procurement falls under the health category within the goods classification.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in healthcare and vaccine supply chains, particularly those within the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector. Competitors that can provide high-quality vaccine supplies or ancillary services related to the distribution and administration of vaccines would be particularly well-suited to explore further contracts with NHS Scotland in similar or related areas. Given the sole supplier condition, this tender exemplifies a niche marketplace where strong partnerships and reliability can lead to sustained business growth.
