What the buyer is looking for
The subject of this publication is the conclusion of non-exclusive rebate agreements pursuant to § 130a(8) SGB V on medicinal products with the active substance pancreatine (ATC code according to WHO: A09AA02). The contract is concluded within the framework of a so-called open house model, i.e. a contract is open to all interested pharmaceutical companies within the participation period, provided that they meet and accept the conditions for participation. As a result, individual contract negotiations are not conducted and (delivery) exclusivity is not given. It should be noted that the purchase quantity is unknown, as it depends on the demand and the development of the number of insured persons, on the prescription behaviour of doctors and on the dispensing and stocking behaviour of public pharmacies.

… companies can download the participation documents via the project space of the German Public Procurement Portal (DTVP). To do this, an application for access to the project space is first required. After activation by the client, the participation documents can then be accessed. The content of the participation documents - in particular the content of the discount agreement and the discounts mentioned therein - must be kept completely silent. A complete or partial disclosure or making available of contents of the participation documents to or for third parties requires the prior written consent of the client. If participation is waived, all documents must be destroyed immediately in accordance with data protection regulations. The documents to be submitted result from the documents "cover letter" and "explanations of the contractual conditions" stored in the project room. Communication, including transmission of participation documents, shall be carried out electronically via the DTVP procurement portal; Details can be found in the documents mentioned above. Any other information in the contract notice is due for technical reasons and is not binding. Requests to participate may be submitted for the first time until 07.10.2025. All further submission deadlines can be found in the annex "Submission deadlines" stored in the project room. If the day of the submission period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or national public holiday, the next working day shall take the place of such a day. In the event of late access, the requests to participate submitted will be taken into account at the next submission deadline. The discount agreement ends, regardless of the date of conclusion of the contract, no later than 31.10.2027. The client reserves the right to terminate the open house procedure prematurely, in particular in the event of the conclusion of exclusive discount agreements; in this case, the rebate agreements already concluded shall end in accordance with the contractual provisions. According to the contracting authority's experience, exclusive discount agreements usually enter into force 8 to 12 months after the publication of the corresponding contract notice in the Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union. · See short description
