Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council has completed the procurement process for providing Occupational Health Physiotherapy Services, with SANO PHYSIOTHERAPY LTD being awarded the contract. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure and involved four bids, with all bids coming from small and medium enterprises. The contract will commence on 1st April 2026 and run until 31st March 2028, with an optional extension until 31st March 2029. Located in Matlock, Derbyshire County Council acts as the buyer, and the services, classified under medical and health-related services, will be delivered primarily across the UKF region. The service provision involves delivering sessions sourced by the provider, being an important aspect of Derbyshire's public health strategy. The award was valued at £258,336 gross for the initial contract period, and the standstill period ends on 13th March 2026.

The awarded contract presents growth opportunities for SMEs specialising in health services, such as physiotherapy, offering them a platform to expand their operations within Derbyshire and beyond. SANO PHYSIOTHERAPY LTD, with expertise in occupational health services, will deliver between 140-190 physiotherapy sessions per month, although specific volumes are not guaranteed. Businesses with a proven track record in medical and related services—particularly those with capabilities to source venues and manage appointments reliably—are well-suited for such procurement processes. The contract focuses on utilising quality services provided by fully qualified physiotherapists, adhering to criteria where quality accounts for 60% and price for 40% of the award decision, thus encouraging high-standard service delivery. This may particularly benefit those small and medium enterprises looking to strengthen their foothold as reliable service providers in the healthcare industry.
