The procurement process initiated with a tender notice in December 2025 and concluded with a contract award to Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust on 17th March 2026. The procurement category focuses on services related to pharmaceutical and clinical products, and the contract is set to be active from 4th June 2026 until 31st May 2029, with potential renewals extending to 2031. The initiative leverages an open competition method below the statutory threshold, with emphasis on technical and commercial evaluation criteria. This tender offers a significant business growth opportunity for companies involved in the pharmaceutical and clinical sectors, particularly those adept at handling complex logistics and regulatory compliance within international contexts. Large-scale enterprises like Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, capable of managing extensive labelling and distribution networks across different geographic locations, are well-suited for such projects. Additionally, given the nature of the work involving pharmaceutical and clinical products, businesses with expertise in these areas can leverage this opportunity to expand their portfolio through international health projects. The structured procurement process and extended contract period provide stability and potential for long-term collaboration with a renowned public authority. ## Notice The purpose of this project is to appoint a supplier to handle the receipt of clinical trial Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) from manufacturer, import, labelling, and distribution to the in-country sites/teams. The trial will be running in Cameroon and involves three oral drugs. Initial dose will be delivered to remote community clinic or healthcare facility and subsequent doses stored and given from the hospital site during the participant admission. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Renewal: The Contract may be extended beyond the Initial Term on a maximum of 2 (two) occasions, for a period of up to 1 (one) year on each occasion. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058418-2026 | | Notice type | UK7 - Contract Details Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Below threshold - open competition | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Jun 2026 | | Submission deadline | 16 Jan 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 17 Mar 2026 | | Contract period | 3 Jun 2026 - 31 May 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £1 | | Contracts value | £1 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LIVERPOOL SCHOOL OF TROPICAL MEDICINE | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L3 5QA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | Brownlow Hill | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD72 Liverpool | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | BAP PHARMA GROUP; GUY'S AND ST THOMAS' NHS FOUNDATION TRUST | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 33 - Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 33600000 - Pharmaceutical products - 33698000 - Clinical products - 79920000 - Packaging and related services ## Release History - 22 Jun 2026 at 10:35 - Award - UK7 - Contract Details Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058418-2026 - 1 Jun 2026 at 08:22 - AwardUpdate - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/051178-2026 - 17 Mar 2026 at 15:12 - Award - UK6 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/024173-2026 - 8 Dec 2025 at 16:05 - Tender - UK4 - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/080753-2025 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058418-2026 22nd June 2026 - Contract details notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/051178-2026 1st June 2026 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/024173-2026 17th March 2026 - Contract award notice on Find a Tender - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/080753-2025 8th December 2025 - Tender notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/93NSCJ7665 - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
