UNICEF: the equity agenda
and vaccines
Rockville

Planning for Adult Vaccination in Middle and Low Income Countries,
HIV, TB, and Malaria WorkshopThomas O’Connell, UNICEF NY
Significant progress toward MDG 4, but we’re fast approaching 2015: opportunity to accelerate progress towards MDG4 and sustain the momentum beyond 2015
Despite significant progress, challenges remain – variable progress across regions, populations, and specific causes of mortality requires targeted, high-impact interventions
New data insights, effective technologies, and country innovations enable a sharper, more strategic focus on the countries, diseases, and populations with the highest burden of under-five mortality

Shifting the curve: new products, policies and knowledge
Vaccines are essential to equity and child survival
Opportunity
� Unprecedented global support to introduce additional vaccines that target thegreatest killers, which are increasingly concentrated in the poorest, mostmarginalised groups
� Mobilised vaccine industry
� Strong partnership forums , in particular GAVI Alliance Partners
Challenges
� Countries face increased financial burden: higher priced vaccines & increased GAVIAlliance co-financing requirements
� Delivery and logistical challenges as fragile infrastructures are further challengedby more vaccines
� Fragile vaccine industry and constrained supply for most vaccines
� Competition from other priorities for limited funding

Vaccine Production:
highly regulated and complex, with inherent risks
Product/ Production Profile Impact
Biological products Significant risks of production failures; require
multiple suppliers
Quality is the OVER-RIDING criterion Only WHO pre-qualified vaccines procured;
requiring significant investment and
continuous oversight. Limits the supply base
Highly regulated production
environment
New regulatory requirements can cause
interruptions
Dependency on well functioning NRA Outside of the control of the manufacture –
risk; requires a diverse supplier base
Limited shelf life Quantity and Timing of Forecasts is key

UNICEF SD develops strategies to achieve healthy market
objectives within each diversified market situation
• Increasing complexity within procurement as new products become
available
• Competition with high-income markets for production allocation
• Demand reacting to changes and developments in immunization
programmes, vaccine development and funding speculation
• Country preferences on presentation and formulation
• Requires balancing with financial sustainability
• Need for increased flexibility on tendering strategies, maintaining long
time horizons and providing for market flexibility

Forecast
Pentavalent vaccine supply has been impacted by a number of supply interruptions, impacting supply availability and resulting in multiple low volume shipments to maintain supply across all countries
Supply start
De-listing
Suspension
Each instance requiring: Work with WHO QSS, close follow up with manufacturer, work with countries affected or planned ot be supplied from the
interruptions, contingency modeling and planning; internally, with countries and with partners. Communication to market and organization, prepare
press responses etc.
Continued fragile market; since 2010, 2 manufactures with pentavalent vaccines have had their vaccines delisted and 2 new manufactures have
entered with new pre-qualified vaccines. Good response from other suppliers to meet the gaps
Has taken a toll on countries – changes in vaccines, shipment-plans, depleting country stocks
Important: while disruptive, voluntary suspensions of shipments are evidence of functioning QAC and action by manufacturers

Forecasts are at the foundation - translating need into funded
demand that will motivate production
New Challenges on the Horizon…
The introduction of new vaccines and increased coverage targets have increased demands on the system in a way that puts business as usual at risk.

conjugate vaccine for ages from infants 6
months & older to adults . High levels (90+%)

Some points for the discussion• Hib vaccine: importance of pro-equity introduction policies,
strategies, financing, etc.
• Pentavalent: it takes time to determine suppliers, presentations, end-to-end SCM issues, always in flux
• CC: remember to plan early for this modest investment, essential to protecting large investment in vaccines.
• Innovative Finance: Vaccines are produced in standardized settings, but used in markedly diverse ones. Financing can help inter-country equity of access
• Typhoid: Plan implementation strategies early on:Takes a long time to build SCM capacity, generate demand, assure end to end quality; determine M&E indicators/tools

Procurement context: Global vs. National Buyer
� UNICEF supply strategy is focused on Vaccine Security – the uninterrupted,
sustainable supply of affordable, quality vaccines – with a global
responsibility, acknowledging there is a Vaccine Security Premium.
� UNICEF procurement and tender strategies are developed in support of
the above. Our role in the global market, the characteristics of the
demand market and of the supply market help inform our specific
objectives and strategies.
� While objectives and strategies at a global and national level may vary, we
are dealing with the same vaccine market
UNICEF Vaccines Procurement values on behalf of governments
and partners are increasing
GAVI falls under procurement services but is highlighted separately to show the overall portion of GAVI funded procurement

Ensuring focus on the whole supply chain
Transparency as a principle and a means of helping markets
be efficient
• Public posting of bid plans and industry consultation
presentations
• Public posting of awards > $100,000
• Posting of prices for product markets where UNICEF has
strategic influence: vaccines, RUTF, medicines, syringes, etc.
• Information notes (eg, Why a 20d BCG vial?, PCV Market
update)

Innovative Finance
Increase use of innovative financing and contracting tools
to positively influence the vaccine markets
• Volume Guarantees provide increased (long-term) visibility
to manufacturers and the certainty of a contractual
obligation to purchase
• Prepayments have been exceptionally made in return for
very attractive pricing from manufacturers
• Made possible through partner support
