## Summary

The procurement process initiated by The Common Services Agency, known as NHS National Services Scotland, focuses on the supply of Rituximab and Trastuzumab intravenous infusion vials. The procurement falls under the health industry category and is based in Edinburgh, UK. Currently in the award stage, this process features an open procurement method with an anticipated contract value of £11,000,000 for a duration of 24 months, commencing from July 1, 2020. Notable dates include the decision to award on June 11, 2020, and the closing date for bids, which was initially set for March 23, 2020, but extended to April 7, 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, especially those with capabilities in the supply of intravenous medications. Companies that have valid UK or EMA marketing authorisations, alongside relevant certifications such as BS EN ISO 9001, would be particularly well-suited to compete. The unranked multi-supplier framework allows for multiple suppliers across six lots, enabling diverse vendors to participate and potentially secure partnerships with the NHS in Scotland.
