The requirement covers the handling of clinical-trial medicines from labelling through storage to distribution, supporting the unit’s research activity. It is a services contract, classified under CPV 33600000 for pharmaceutical products and CPV 73110000 for research services. The work will be delivered for the University of Dundee at Nethergate, Dundee, and relates to the Tayside Clinical Trials Unit. There is one lot covering the complete requirement, so this opportunity suits providers able to deliver the connected labelling, storage and distribution service rather than only one isolated activity. The buyer invited offers through a single-stage open procedure. Electronic tenders were required, with submissions due by 25 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract is for 1,080 days, with a possible further fourth year if required; renewal is not automatic. The estimated maximum value is £130,000, including the sole lot. Bids must remain valid until 30 October 2026. Evaluation and participation requirements include suitability evidence of an MHRA IMP GMP Certificate and MHRA Sample/MIA/IMP authorisation. Technical eligibility states that delivery is reserved to a particular profession. Variants are not allowed. Tenderers must provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the service, and a fee applies for tender documents. This opportunity is aimed at specialist pharmaceutical and clinical-trial service providers with the regulatory permissions and quality systems needed to handle investigational medicinal products. Suitable suppliers should be able to demonstrate MHRA IMP GMP certification and relevant MHRA Sample/MIA/IMP authorisation, and operate within the professional requirements for this service. They will need practical capability across pharmaceutical overlabelling, controlled storage and reliable distribution for clinical trials, with processes that protect product identity, quality and traceability. The single-lot structure favours an established provider, or a suitably organised consortium, able to manage the full service end to end. Businesses must also have appropriately qualified staff available to deliver the work. ## Notice Overlabelling, Storage and Distribution of Research Drugs for Clinical Trials ### Lot Information Lot 1 Overlabelling, Storage & Distribution of Research Drugs for Clinical Trial(s) on behalf of Tayside Clinical Trial Unit (TCTU), University of Dundee.
