Summary of the contracting process

City of Doncaster Council has recently completed a procurement process to appoint suitably qualified suppliers to deliver a range of flexible employee benefits for St Leger Homes of Doncaster (SLHD). The tender titled "SLHD Employee Benefits" falls under the industry category of miscellaneous services (CPV code 98300000). Located in Yorkshire and the Humber, this open procedure offered suppliers the opportunity to bid for one or more of the three lots: Employee Healthcare Plan, Employee Cycle Hire, and Employee Benefits Platform. The initial contract period is from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028, with the possibility of two 12-month extensions. The tender process concluded with an award on 14th February 2025, and the contract for lot 2 (Employee Cycle Hire) was awarded to Cyclescheme Ltd (a Blackhawk Network Business) starting 9th April 2025. Unfortunately, no awards were made for lots 1 and 3 due to budgetary constraints.

This tender presents significant opportunities for suppliers involved in healthcare services, transport equipment, and employee benefits platforms. Businesses specialising in health insurance services, bicycle hire schemes, and comprehensive employee benefit platforms could find lucrative opportunities here. Medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may see this as a chance to expand their portfolio within the public sector, given the open and competitive nature of the procurement process. The City of Doncaster Council's commitment to flexible and innovative employee benefits indicates a supportive environment for providers looking to create impactful employee wellness programmes.
