## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is planning to undertake a procurement process for the development and manufacture of a Tranexamic Acid (TXA) Auto-Injector. This opportunity falls under the Injectable solutions category and involves a planned engagement end date of October 6, 2023. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage. The contracting authority is the Ministry of Defence, located in Bristol, England.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical manufacturing and medical devices to compete for a contract with the Ministry of Defence. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate in this procurement process. Interested businesses should consider their capacity to produce and deliver the required formulation of the TXA Auto-Injector, as specified by the Ministry of Defence.

## Notice

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) are considering a requirement to develop a Tranexamic Acid Auto-Injector (TXA AI) containing 500mg/5ml formulation as soon as is technically possible, to reduce the need for clinical trials and gain UK MoD approval for off licence use. The UK MoD may subsequently seek an AI containing an improved formulation of TXA, by increasing concentration and reducing volume.
