## Summary

The procurement process for the supply of VZIG Varicella-Zoster immunoglobulin intramuscular use (IM) has been completed by the Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS). This contract falls under the health industry category and is located in Edinburgh, UK. The procurement method used was limited contracting without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by the lack of competition in the manufacturing process. The contract was signed on 19 January 2021, with a total value of £569,100 for an initial duration of 36 months, which may be extended for an additional 12 months.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for suppliers experienced in healthcare products. Companies that specialise in pharmaceuticals, especially those with capability in the production of biological products, would be well-suited to engage in similar future contracts. The reliance on single-source suppliers indicates a niche market where businesses can thrive by offering high-quality, specialised goods and services to public health entities across Scotland.
