## Summary

NHS England has completed the procurement process for the BGMA Joint Working Project, aimed at maximising the use of biosimilars in health services. This procurement, focusing on the health services industry, involved a direct procurement method via single tender action. The project addresses barriers to the uptake of biosimilars, with contracts awarded to the Biosimilar and Generics Manufacturers Association (BGMA). The contract period commenced on 20th February 2025 and concluded on 31st March 2025. The procurement, valued at £20,000, took place at NHS England's headquarters in London, SE1 8UG, United Kingdom.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in health services, medical supply chains, and pharmaceutical manufacturing stand to benefit significantly from participating in similar future projects aimed at overcoming industry barriers. Collaborations with major health organisations like NHS England offer robust growth prospects and enhance a company's portfolio within the public healthcare sector.
