## Summary

The procurement process for the supply of Recombinant Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine (Supemtek) was conducted by The Common Services Agency, commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland (NSS), located in Edinburgh, UK. This tender, initiated as a limited procurement method without prior publication, reached a complete status with an award issued to Aventis Pharma Ltd t/a Sanofi. The procurement was valued at £2,257,600 and the contract was signed on 30th August 2021, for the purpose of supporting the annual seasonal influenza immunisation programme in NHS Scotland.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating in the health and pharmaceutical sectors, particularly those specialising in vaccine supply and related goods. Although Aventis Pharma was the sole supplier in this instance due to a lack of competition for the specific vaccine, other businesses focusing on health products, biotechnology, or pharmaceutical logistics could potentially benefit from future tenders in this domain. Engaging with the NHS procurement team may provide insights into upcoming opportunities and allow companies to establish competitive bids for similar contracts.
