Summary of the contracting process

Herts for Learning Limited has established a multi-supplier framework for occupational health and employee assistance programme services for schools and education settings. The services are intended to support schools when they seek occupational health and employee assistance solutions; the framework itself does not trigger an immediate purchase. The scope is health services (CPV 85100000), split across four lots, with delivery across the United Kingdom. Herts for Learning will make framework details available to schools and education settings approaching it to purchase these services. The requirement is therefore relevant to providers able to support education-sector employers with occupational health and employee assistance, rather than suppliers offering unrelated health services.

The procurement is complete and the framework suppliers have been selected following an open procedure. Vita Health Group Limited, Insight Health Screening Limited and UK Independent Medical Services Limited were named on the award covering all four lots. The award is valued at £2,000,000. The award date is 5 October 2026; the framework period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031. The tender closed on 8 September 2026, with enquiries ending on 21 August 2026. Price and quality each carried equal weight, at 50%. This is a closed framework with up to four participants, and call-offs are made without reopening competition. Seven bids were recorded for each lot.

The outcome shows demand from Herts for Learning for occupational health and employee assistance services across schools and education settings, delivered through a multi-supplier framework. A credible future competitor would need relevant occupational health and employee assistance expertise, together with the skills, infrastructure, resources and procedures to deliver services to the required standard. Herts for Learning specifically sought suitably qualified and experienced providers able to demonstrate robust management and quality-control processes. Competition was assessed equally on price and quality, so suppliers would need to evidence dependable service quality as well as competitive pricing. The framework admitted up to four suppliers and attracted seven bids per lot, indicating competition from both larger providers and SMEs: two selected suppliers are SMEs and one is a large supplier.」}2222222222>tagger、】【json 2 天天中彩票实名?

Notice Description

This Multi Supplier Framework is for Occupational Health and Employee Assistance Programme Services to be provided for Schools and Education Settings.
