What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionImproving health outcomes through vaccines is a priority for the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). We aim to use UKHSA's capabilities across the full vaccine pathway to facilitate innovation and support the development and deployment of safe and effective vaccines, ensure the reliable and timely procurement, storage and distribution of vaccines, and drive increased uptake among the population to reduce the burden of infectious disease.
UKHSA published a Vaccine Prospectus in August 2026, which sets out the work that UKHSA and the wider health family do to sustain and grow the UK's world-leading role in immunisation. It details the scope of our programmes, our policy objectives, how we work with industry, and forthcoming opportunities to work with us.
