- Vaccine Preventable Disease outbreak response in education and community settings (0-19 years)
- Contribute to outreach, through Provider collaboration and support for delivery of immunisations in Primary Care and community settings.

The contract term is for a period of five (5) years with an option for extension of further two (2) years. The total contract value is Â£108,221,743 . For each of the 5 geographical areas, the prices are:

- Lot 1 (NEL) - Â£27,196,030

For these programmes (excluding 1-5 above), the investment is based on a tariff priced at Â£10.06 per dose of vaccine administered and for the delivery of outbreak response.
