Summary of the contracting process

City of Doncaster Council procured an Occupational Physician Service to support its occupational health function. The requirement covers access to an appropriately qualified and experienced occupational physician who can provide specialist clinical advice, statutory health surveillance input and case management support for employees across the Council’s diverse workforce. This is a health services contract, including company health services and related occupational health provision. Delivery is across the United Kingdom, with the awarded service linked to Doncaster Council’s occupational health needs. The procurement was structured as a single lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The buying organisation is City of Doncaster Council.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Workforce Wellbeing Ltd was selected as the supplier. The award was made on 3 September 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with two possible extensions of up to 12 months each, allowing a maximum period to 30 September 2031. The contract value is £153,000 excluding VAT and £183,600 including VAT. Enquiries closed on 31 July 2026 at 11:00 and tenders closed on 10 August 2026 at 11:00. Detailed award criteria were set out in Section 1, Part C, Evaluation Strategy of the tender documents.

This award indicates demand from Doncaster Council for specialist occupational physician capacity within a broader occupational health service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need an appropriately qualified and experienced occupational physician able to provide specialist clinical advice, statutory health surveillance input and case management support. Experience of supporting employees across a diverse workforce would be relevant, as would the clinical governance, professional expertise and operational capacity to deliver these services consistently for a public-sector employer. The opportunity was considered suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, suggesting that delivery capability did not depend solely on a large corporate structure. Suppliers in occupational health, occupational medicine and company health services with these capabilities would be well placed to monitor the Council’s future requirements.
