## Summary

The procurement process involves NHS England seeking suppliers for the provision of a new antimicrobial via a subscription-based payment model. This contract falls under the healthcare industry category, specifically aimed at general anti-infectives and related medical products. The supplier, Shionogi, was awarded the contract on 9th June 2022, with an initial duration of three years, and the option to extend it for up to seven additional years. The procurement was conducted through a selective process with competitive dialogue, and the successful proposals were submitted by organisations with EU licensed antimicrobials available in the UK between January and December 2020.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, particularly those specialising in antimicrobials and related medical products. Companies capable of delivering EU licensed antimicrobial products and who can demonstrate compliance with the specific health criteria outlined in the procurement documents stand a strong chance of competing.
