## Summary

The procurement process managed by The Common Services Agency, also known as Public Services Delivery Scotland (PSD Scotland), involves the supply of Vedolizumab (Entyvio®) to NHS Scotland. This process falls under the pharmaceutical products industry, with the central activity focused on goods procurement. The main location for this procurement is within the region of UKM, and it is tied to all entities under the NHS (Scotland) Act 1978. The process has reached its completion stage, with a contract awarded on 24th June 2026 and a substantial contract value amounting to GBP 47,898,609. The procedure utilised was a limited procurement method, specifically awarded without prior publication due to the protection of exclusive rights associated with the product.

This procurement provides a significant opportunity for pharmaceutical companies, especially those capable of supplying specialised medicines such as Vedolizumab, which are protected by intellectual property rights. It can spur business growth by allowing firms like Takeda UK Limited, the awarded supplier, to expand their footprint in the UK's healthcare supply chain. This contract also sets a precedent for other large pharmaceutical suppliers seeking to engage in direct awards through framework agreements within the NHS structure, provided they possess exclusive distribution rights or similar protective measures over their products.
