Summary of the contracting process

Chelmsford City Council has completed the award stage for the "Employee Assistance Programme Award" contract, classified under guidance and counselling services (CPV 85312300). The contract, valued at £35,000, involves providing an employee assistance programme and is part of a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period runs from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028, with services delivered in the East of England. The procurement process used a selective method with the tender period ending on 6th January 2025.

This tender represents a valuable business opportunity for companies providing guidance and counselling services, particularly those experienced in occupational health and employee assistance programmes.
