Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions commissioned management consultancy services for the Keep Britain Working Social Licence and Data Sharing project. The work explores whether Work and Health Checks could enable better data and insight, supporting earlier preventative interventions for employees at organisational, regional and national levels. It covers the viability and options for using these checks as part of a wider approach to workforce health and employment support. The main requirement is a consultancy service, classified under general management consultancy services. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The project is relevant to consultancies with experience in workforce health, employment policy, data strategy, data sharing and the design or assessment of interventions involving employers and employees.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Department for Work and Pensions selected Bloom Procurement Services Ltd through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 27 July 2026, for £496,708.98 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 27 July 2026 to 31 December 2026. The tender submission deadline was 26 July 2026 at 15:17. The requirement was categorised as a services contract. The procurement records the opportunity as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. Bloom Procurement Services Ltd is the sole named supplier and the award is active.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible supplier would need to combine management consultancy with practical expertise in work and health, employment support and employer-led interventions. The work calls for the ability to assess the viability of Work and Health Checks, develop realistic delivery options and explain how data and insight could support earlier preventative action. Strong capability in data governance, information sharing, analysis and the relationship between organisational, regional and national data would be important. Suppliers should also be able to engage employers and employees, understand policy and operational constraints, and turn evidence into implementable recommendations. The buyer’s recorded suitability position indicates that this is aimed at established, sufficiently resourced consultancy providers rather than SMEs or VCSEs.
