## Summary

The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), has updated the framework agreement for the provision of nicotine replacement therapy products (NP46220). This contract, which falls under the pharmaceutical products industry category, involves an extension from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025, in response to unforeseen increased demands within the Scottish Health and Social Care sector. Located in Edinburgh, NHS National Services Scotland seeks to ensure continuous supply across all entities established under the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 and Integrated Joint Boards. This extension follows the initial 24-month period and an additional 24-month extension, aligning with Regulation 72(1)(c) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015, currently in the award update stage as of 18 December 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in pharmaceutical products, particularly those capable of meeting the high demand for nicotine replacement therapies. With a projected value of £3,655,556, the contract is suited for suppliers who can deliver goods consistently to support various NHS and social care entities across Scotland. Companies like Haleon PLC, which has already been awarded part of this tender, illustrate the potential for large-scale pharmaceutical suppliers to secure long-term government contracts, fostering sustained business growth and stability in the public health supply chain.
