Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hackney and the City of London Corporation are currently in the planning stage to re-procure Oral Health Promotion and Prevention services, aiming to reduce tooth decay and improve oral hygiene. With a specific focus on health and social work services, this initiative covers various universal and targeted services across England. Organisations are invited to engage before the 25th of August, 2025, in exploring optimal service delivery models. This procurement opportunity is classified under CPV code 85000000, indicating its relevance to the health and social work sector.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for organisations with clinical expertise in oral health, particularly those capable of delivering training, fluoride product distribution, and specific oral health initiatives for diverse communities. Companies specialising in supervised toothbrushing programmes for young children, fluoride varnish applications, and health promotion in Orthodox Jewish communities and care homes are particularly well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity. Engaging with Hackney and City of London could lead to strategic collaborations and a chance to influence public health priorities in local communities. Despite the procurement's exclusion from SME and VCSE suitability, entities with the necessary clinical knowledge and capability are likely to find viable growth pathways through this tender.
