Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust commissioned a repeat air-monitoring programme to measure employees’ exposure to hazardous substances and identify areas where process controls need improvement. The work is an occupational hygiene and air pollution monitoring service, covering suitable monitoring rather than a specified list of substances or locations. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex. The requirement supports workplace health and safety by giving the Trust evidence on exposure levels and where controls may need strengthening.

The procurement is complete and awarded. The Trust used a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Workplace Exposure Ltd was selected, with an award value of £400,000. The award was made on 13 October 2026. The contract period runs from 14 October 2026 to 13 October 2029. The estimated procurement range was £240,000 to £400,000. The recorded submission deadline was 26 August 2026 at noon. The requirement was a single air-monitoring programme; the award information identifies no separate lots. The procurement records that it was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers competing when this Trust’s requirement returns to market, relevant capability is the delivery of repeat occupational air monitoring that can reliably determine employee exposure to hazardous substances and identify areas needing better process control. Credible providers will need to plan and carry out monitoring suited to the workplace and the hazards, and present findings in a form the Trust can use to assess exposure and target improvements. The award demonstrates demand for a substantial, multi-year service rather than a one-off test. The Trust used a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so suppliers seeking similar work should be positioned to participate through the applicable purchasing route. The recorded SME suitability indicates that smaller suppliers were not considered suitable for this requirement.
