## Summary

The procurement process for the supply of an egg-based quadrivalent influenza vaccine is being conducted by the Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS). This tender is categorised under the health industry, specifically for healthcare goods, and is located in Edinburgh, UK. Currently in the award stage, the contract has a total value of £16,000 and was signed on 5th April 2022.
