This procurement process is classified under the goods category and was executed through an open procedure. The contract, beginning on 1st August 2026 and running until 30th April 2027, is valued at £1,500,000. The contract award was finalised on the 22nd June 2026, with the award notice published on 13th July 2026. The buying organisation, located in Derby, England, intends to ensure ongoing supply by extending current agreements on an interim basis before initiating a new competitive procurement in summer 2026. This procurement opportunity offers substantial growth potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as the tender process is particularly suitable for such businesses. The need for premarket engagement as part of the upcoming procurement exercise in summer 2026 will also enable businesses to present their capabilities and tailor their approach in alignment with best practices. Suppliers engaged in the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in nutrition products, may find this contract valuable for enhancing their market presence and scaling their operations within the United Kingdom. ## Notice The current contract is due to expire on 31 July 2026. In order to maintain continuity of patient care and ensure uninterrupted product and service delivery, EMPC intends to extend the existing agreements with the current Awarded Suppliers beyond this date on an interim basis. EMPC has explored the option of accessing an alternative Hub Framework; however, this approach has proven unsuccessful. As a result, a new competitive procurement exercise is required. The new tender is planned for publication in summer 2026 and will include premarket engagement in line with procurement best practice. The interim extension will be limited in scope and duration to the minimum necessary to complete the new procurement.
