Tender: Framework Agreement for Supply of Unlicensed Imported Medicines – North East & Yorkshire NHS (NEYPPC)

About

The North East and Yorkshire NHS Pharmaceutical Purchasing Consortium is seeking suppliers for a framework agreement to provide a defined range of unlicensed imported medicines to NHS organisations and other eligible public sector bodies, including products requiring over‑labelling and translation. These medicines do not hold a UK Marketing Authorisation but are licensed in their country of origin and may be imported and supplied in accordance with Regulation 167 of the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 where a suitable licensed alternative is not available. Suppliers must hold all relevant MHRA licences, authorisations and approvals to import, distribute and supply unlicensed medicines in the UK, and must demonstrate compliance with applicable Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards. The framework aims to give participating organisations access to safe, compliant and quality‑assured products through a robust, competitive procurement arrangement, with products and suppliers subject to comprehensive quality, risk and commercial assessment to support regulatory compliance, supply chain resilience, continuity of patient care and value for money across the NHS.
