## Summary

The procurement process involves the Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), which is based in Edinburgh, UK. They have awarded a tender titled "Tinzaparin (Innohep®)" for the supply of this medication to health boards across NHS Scotland. The tender process was categorised as limited, meaning it was an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The relevant award was signed on 28th November 2017, marking the completion of the procurement stage for this goods category contract.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating within the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, particularly those involved in the production or supply of specialised medication. Companies with the capability to manufacture or distribute Tinzaparin, alongside those experienced in navigating the complexities of public sector contracts, would be well-positioned to compete and contribute to the NHS's procurement needs. The framework agreement also suggests potential for ongoing business engagement, with an initial duration of 24 months and an option for a 12-month extension.
