## Summary

The UK Ministry of Defence, specifically the ISTAR, Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Delivery Team (CBRN DT), is currently engaged in a tender process titled "Provision of an Auto-Injector Partner". This procurement, classified under the industry category of specialised chemical products, is based in Bristol, South West England. The tender is in the active stage, with a closing deadline set for 30 June 2020. The estimated contract value ranges from £20 million to £100 million, and the contract period is expected to start on 1 December 2020 and extend until 1 December 2035. This selective procurement will utilise a negotiated procedure to appoint a manufacturing partner for auto-injector devices.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment and pharmaceuticals sectors, particularly those that specialise in manufacturing complex medical devices. Companies with experience in producing auto-injectors or similar medical technologies will be well-suited to compete for this contract, which may involve future manufacturing options as requirements evolve. Engaging in this procurement process could lead to long-term partnerships with the Ministry of Defence, potentially strengthening market presence and driving business growth within the healthcare and defence industries.

## Notice

The UK Ministry of Defence (UK MOD) has an identified and likely future requirement for the production of single and triple therapy auto-injector devices for intramuscular administration. The auto-injectors should be capable of storing up to three Active pharmaceuticals ingredients in a single, dual or triple chambered device. Full operating capability will require the final drug product to be submitted to Regulatory Agencies in the EU and the United Kingdom with the intent for full licensure / marketing authorisation (MA). The Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear Team (CBRN) is therefore seeking to appoint a partner to manufacture current Auto-injector requirements with future options to manufacture other similar devices as they arise throughout the contractual period.
