The contract, identified under CM/PHR/19/5582/01, is anticipated to start on 1st June 2025 and continue through to 31st May 2026, with a maximum possible extension until 31st May 2027, and is valued at £3,652,425. This procurement falls within the Pharmaceutical products category and is focused on the delivery within the United Kingdom. Key details include a forthcoming publication of a future notice by 23rd May 2025. As the procurement is above threshold, it involves a framework agreement with multiple existing providers.

Companies that are part of or can join the established National Framework will find this tender particularly beneficial for expanding their market presence within the NHS system. SME suppliers, with a foothold in healthcare distribution and an ability to meet strict delivery and supply standards, are well-suited to compete in this procurement process.
