Written by AlisonFreemantle on Friday 19th July 2024

Local ‘Gap’ Opportunities

The EOI process for additional capacity for covid vaccination service is now open

The Portal is now open for pharmacies to complete an expression of interest (EOI) process if they wish to take part in the COVID-19 Vaccination Service from a location away from their pharmacy or missed the original deadline and the location is considered a gap.

Pharmacies are invited to express their interest in any opportunity where they feel they can meet the requirements set out by the Commissioner in their invitation to tender (ITT). There may be several lots for the same postcode area or for multiple postcode areas.

Hampshire & IOW opportunities have been published today 16th July and the EOI will need to be completed by 26th July.

The lots are published on the Contracts Finder and Find a Tender websites.

Pharmacies who are interested in expressing an interest will need to review these websites regularly to check for opportunities. A published opportunity may contain separate Lots for the award of:

  1. A Fixed Site Contractual Agreement(s); or
  2. An Outreach Contractual Agreement(s)

Invitation to tender (ITT) documents are published on the Health Family Portal (registration required).

Pharmacies who wish to express an interest, should first read the NHS England site selection process: guidance for all suppliers
