## Summary

The tender process was initiated by The Common Services Agency, also known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), for the supply of the pharmaceutical product Triumeq. The procurement falls under the goods category with an emphasis on pharmaceutical products (CPV: 33600000). The procurement stage is at the award and contract update phases, with the contract duration set for 24 months, extendable by another 24 months. The contract modification has extended the framework agreement duration from 1 March 2025 to 30 April 2026, aimed at meeting additional demands within the Scottish Health and Social Care sector. The delivery location covers entities under the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 and Integrated Joint Boards under the Public Bodies (Joint Working) Scotland Act 2014. The awarded supplier is ViiV Healthcare UK Ltd.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for companies operating within the pharmaceutical industry, specifically businesses with the capability to supply patented medicines. The procurement follows a limited procurement method without prior publication due to the exclusive patent rights held by the supplier. Companies with expertise in pharmaceutical distribution to large healthcare organisations and a strong compliance track record with NHS standards may find significant growth avenues through participation. The modification of the framework agreement ensures extended engagement, providing a stable and consistent demand within the sector, enhancing reliable business opportunities for the selected supplier.
