Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Barnet Council is initiating a tender process titled "Job Retention and Wellbeing Support Programme to SME" aimed at providing essential job retention support for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the health and social work services sector. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period is set to end on August 23, 2019. The expected contract will begin on October 1, 2019, and conclude on September 30, 2020, with an overall value of £70,000. The services will be required to be delivered within the London region.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in welfare services, particularly those focusing on workplace health strategies and support for employees facing prolonged periods of sickness. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as they can leverage their expertise in providing tailored support services that promote employee wellbeing and job retention. Engaging in this programme can facilitate business growth by establishing strong partnerships with local authorities while enhancing service offerings in the sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Job Retention and Wellbeing Support Programme to SME

Notice Description

Prolonged periods of sickness absence can lead to job losses and those effected often struggling to get back into work. As a result, these individuals have difficulty supporting themselves and their family. Without the positive psychological and social support that comes from being in work, health and wellbeing can deteriorate. The impact of this downward spiral is felt by each person affected, their families, their employers because of the costs of sickness absence and staff turnover, and health services that bear additional costs. Whilst significant progress has been made in recent years in supporting those who are unemployed to seek work, relatively little practical support is available to help people stay in work. The Council is keen to address this gap by entering into a contractual agreement with a provider organisation which will deliver job retention support to Barnet's Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) alongside support to implement healthy workplace practices.
