## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the "Pharmacy Partners DPS: Tender Round 1" initiated by the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which serves the healthcare industry in Birmingham and Solihull. The dynamic purchasing system was established in 2016 for community-based sexual health services, with contracts from this tender awarded amounting to £1,518,939 and expiring on 31 August 2020. The procurement method utilized is a selective approach through a call-off from the previously established dynamic purchasing system.
