Summary of the contracting process

The University of East Anglia has recently concluded a competitive tender process under an open procurement method for Occupational Health Services, which has reached the award stage as of 23rd June 2026. The procurement process aimed to secure comprehensive occupational health services for both staff and students, segmented into two lots. Located at Norwich Research Park, UKH15, this procurement falls under the services industry category. The contract, which is slated to begin on 1st August 2026 and could extend up to 31st July 2031, subject to renewal options, underscores the University's commitment to maintaining health and safety regulations and supporting the wellbeing of its staff and student body.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in occupational health. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with competencies in providing tailored health assessments, compliance with health regulations, and ergonomic consultancy could excel in this environment. The involvement of Innovate Healthcare Management Group Limited, an SME, in the awarded contracts highlights this potential. Moreover, the tender's focus on service quality and cost-effectiveness makes it an attractive opportunity for businesses looking to leverage their expertise in these areas, with contracts amounting to GBP 225,073 and GBP 1,332,470 for staff and student services respectively.
