## Summary

The recent procurement process completed by Belfast Health & Social Care Trust involved the direct award of a contract for the Ravulizumab IV Infusion, classified under the pharmaceutical products category. The procurement was based on a direct award method due to the availability of the medicines from only one economic operator, Alexion Pharma UK Limited, and addressed essential patient care needs. This process, governed by UK central government regulations and compliant with Northern Irish devolved laws, pertains to the Belfast region in the UKN06 area. Key dates include the contract's start on 9th October 2025, with completion expected by 30th September 2027, with an overall contract value of £1,200,000 GBP.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses within the pharmaceutical industry, particularly those specialising in branded, patent-protected medicines. Although the procurement method was a direct award due to the lack of competitive alternatives, it highlights the critical demand for specialised pharmaceutical solutions that fulfil stringent health and regulatory standards. Large-scale pharmaceutical companies with intellectual property rights may find such opportunities lucrative, particularly those capable of providing specialised medical products directly to health authorities. These engagements could foster robust business growth, given the considerable contract value and the guaranteed need for essential medical supplies.
