During the pandemic, contracts were agreed with a number of suppliers to meet the need for urgency and high volume of vaccines required to protect the population. These contracts come to an end in 2024 and as we move into an endemic phase of the disease, we are considering how best to meet our vaccine demand requirements in the future. The objective of future procurements will be to match supply to the particular requirements of the planned vaccination programme at the time, such as the current variant(s) of concern as well as the size and scope of eligible vaccination cohorts. We are also keen to ensure that we maintain access to any new and emerging vaccine technologies and developments in order to deliver the best outcomes from our immunisation programmes. As such, we are looking to establish a flexible procurement model that provides an efficient route to market and can adapt according to need. The purpose of this market engagement activity is to; • Understand both supplier appetite for participating in future COVID-19 vaccine procurements as well as current or planned supplier capability to supply COVID-19 vaccines. • Share our initial thoughts as to what the procurement approach may look like and test our assumptions and proposals. • Explore any potential barriers or concerns that there may be with the proposed approach to the market. The market engagement will take the form of a questionnaire available via our e-procurement system, ([atamis-1928.my.site.com/s/Welcome](https://atamis-1928.my.site.com/s/Welcome)). Once completed you will also have an opportunity to request a 1:1 meeting with the project team to discuss your answers and the project in more detail. It is anticipated that these meetings will take place during December 2023 and January 2024. Who would we like to hear from? We are keen to engage with those suppliers who may already have a COVID-19 vaccine approved or who have a vaccine in development that may be available within the timeframe of a future procurement. Next steps: Following this market engagement activity the team will review the feedback and use this to update and finalise the procurement strategy. We expect to advertise the procurement opportunity in Q2 2024, although all timings are subject to change.
