This involves extending an existing contract from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, with a total value of £1,208,578.78. The procurement method used was categorised as "Other" and the process is now in the award stage, having been completed with the contract award date on 28 May 2025.

The procurement relates to services to be delivered in the United Kingdom, specifically focusing on pharmacy services, as classified under the CPV code 85149000.
