Summary of the contracting process

NHS England South West has commissioned a tender for the Community COVID-19 Vaccination Programme, aimed at establishing additional fixed vaccination sites across the South West of the UK. This tender, titled "Community COVID-19 Vaccination Programme - South West Additional Fixed Sites", falls under the health services category and involves the provision of COVID-19 vaccinations at designated locations. The procurement process has progressed to the award stage, with contract awards made on 5th March 2025.

The initial 12-month contract term begins on 1st April 2025, with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. The procurement process was conducted through an open procedure in compliance with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The tender represents an opportunity for businesses, particularly those capable of delivering health services and managing vaccination sites, to expand their operations and participate in a vital public health initiative.

Suitable competitors include healthcare providers with the necessary capacity and capability to operate additional fixed vaccination sites efficiently. The lots are divided by postcode regions, meaning multiple contracts may be awarded within a lot depending on supplier availability and capacity, providing flexible opportunities for businesses of varying sizes and capabilities. This initiative not only supports public health but also enables suppliers to contribute to and benefit from a significant government health programme.
