## Summary

The Peninsula Purchasing & Supply Alliance (PPSA) has concluded an open procurement process for the supply of aseptically manipulated or terminally sterile medicinal products. Managed on behalf of the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and other Trusts within their network, the tender distributed products such as national dose-banded cytotoxic and non-cytotoxic medicines in ready-to-use infusion bags and pre-filled syringes. This process served multiple NHS Trusts, including those in Gloucestershire, Cornwall, Somerset, and more. The procurement, categorised under "Pharmaceutical products" (CPV: 33600000), has transitioned from the tender stage to the awarding of contracts, with key awards signed in June 2024.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical products, particularly those adept in handling aseptically prepared substances. The awards were made to Quantum Pharmaceutical Limited and Qualasept Ltd t/a Bath ASU, indicating the lucrative potential in securing NHS contracts. With extensions for up to 24 months available, there are substantial opportunities for long-term collaboration with various NHS Trusts, making it ideal for suppliers focusing on scalability and consistent quality in pharmaceutical manufacturing and supply.
