## Summary

The North of England Commissioning Support has awarded a contract extension for the provision of the Greater Manchester (GM) School Aged Flu service. The procurement stage was an Open Procedure (above threshold), with a contract value of GBP 2,669,596. The tender period ended on March 31, 2023, and the contract runs from April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024. The service falls under the Health and Social Work Services category and is located in the North West region of the United Kingdom.

This contract extension opportunity for the GM School Aged Flu service is suitable for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise (VCSE) organisations. Businesses in the health and social work services sector would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The extension aims to align with pending national decisions on the immunisation strategy, service specification, and future commissioning in line with relevant legislation.

## Notice

The Greater Manchester (GM) School Aged Flu provision forms part of the mandated national flu program, it targets varying cohorts of children that are defined annually following JCVI advice. Locally, this service covers all 10 GM localities, with the service delivering primarily a nasal spray flu vaccine, and more recently the intramuscular (IM) flu vaccines to all applicable cohorts. The extension allows for the inclusion of the pending national decisions on the development of the national immunisation strategy, the regional insight work that has been initiated and devolvement of immunisation services to ICBs as we are still awaiting this guidance which will be critical to the service specification and will inform future decisions on the service model for GM. Additional information: Future commissioning of services will be undertaken in line with relevant legislation.
