Summary of the contracting process

Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is seeking occupational health services for its Health Work & Wellbeing Department. The requirement is for at least two occupational health physicians or providers to deliver the Trust’s occupational health service. This is a healthcare services contract, classified under CPV 85100000 (health services), with delivery at the Trust’s Health Work & Wellbeing Department in Mersey and West Lancashire. The procurement is covered by the Provider Selection Regime, which applies to the award. Suppliers should review the tender documents for the detailed service requirements and scope.

The Trust invited tenders through an open procedure. The tender submission deadline was 30 October 2026; the evaluation and bid opening were scheduled to begin on 31 October 2026 at 12:00. The stated contract term runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with an option for a two-year extension. The estimated contract value is £1,404,000. There is one lot. Responses are assessed on integration, collaboration and service sustainability (36%); value (30%); quality and innovation (18%); social value (10%); and improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice (6%). Bids must be submitted electronically in English, and variants are not allowed. The Provider Selection Regime applies; the Procurement Act 2023 does not apply.

This opportunity is suited to occupational health providers able to supply at least two occupational health physicians or providers and deliver services for a teaching hospital trust. The scope calls for a provider team capable of supporting the Trust’s Health Work & Wellbeing Department over a multi-year service term, with the option of an extension. Responses are judged most heavily on integration, collaboration and service sustainability, so suppliers should be able to show how their service will work with the Trust and remain sustainable. Quality and innovation, social value, access, health inequalities and choice also form part of the assessment, alongside value. This may suit established occupational health organisations or a consortium able to combine the required clinical provision and service delivery capabilities.
