Summary of the contracting process

York St John University procured occupational health services for its staff and students. The requirement covers nationwide provision, including the university’s campuses in York and the Docklands area of East London. Services include occupational health support and course clearances for students from the School of Science, Technology and Health and the School of Education, Language and Psychology. The provider must also deliver placement assessments and clearances for students from the School of Science, Technology and Health. This is a health services contract, classified under CPV 85100000, with delivery across the United Kingdom and at the specified York and East London locations. The university is the buying organisation and the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded following an above-threshold open procedure. Innovate Health Care Management Group Ltd was awarded the sole lot for £200,000 gross. The award was made on 25 June 2026, after eight bids reached the final stage, including six from SMEs. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 8 September 2029, with possible extensions to 8 September 2031. Extensions are conditional on excellent service. Evaluation weighted proposal and evidence of capability at 40%, price and value for money at 30%, account management and key people at 10%, management information and reporting at 10%, and social and environmental impact at 10%.

This award shows demand from a university for a single occupational health provider able to operate nationally while supporting defined campus locations. A credible competitor for the requirement when it returns would need the operational reach to serve staff and students across the United Kingdom, with reliable delivery in York and East London. It would also need practical experience of student course clearances, placement assessments and related fitness or occupational health decisions across science, health, education, language and psychology programmes. Strong account management, named key personnel, clear management information and reporting, and evidence-led service capability would be important. Competitors should also be prepared to demonstrate social and environmental impact alongside competitive pricing and overall value for money.
