Contract Notice

The Authority is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for product(s) indicated for protection from COVID-19 for future immunisation campaigns.

The duration of the DPS will be for 4 years (2024-2028).

UKHSA anticipates a requirement over the period 2024 to 2028 for the supply of product(s) indicated for protection from COVID-19.

The annual requirement for COVID-19 vaccines will be determined by DHSC and UKHSA policy following advice from the JCVI as to which cohorts should be included in an upcoming immunisation programme.

UKHSA is seeking to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System ("DPS") to provide a flexible route to market as a means of meeting the requirements for COVID-19 vaccines.

The potential total value of the procurements (in aggregate) that may be placed with one (1) or more potential providers in aggregate within the DPS is [£1 billion] (excluding VAT).

No commitment is made to conducting any further call for competition nor for procuring any minimum volume or value of goods by UKHSA in setting up this DPS.

The DPS provides potential providers with a means to take part in future tenders.

The Authority invites applications from suitably qualified suppliers to join the DPS in order to participate in future tender opportunities.

Only those suppliers whose DPS application has been approved and who have been accepted on to the DPS at the time an ITT is issued will be eligible to submit a tender.
