Summary of the contracting process

South Cambridgeshire District Council is seeking an employee wellbeing survey service. The contractor will run an initial survey on appointment and repeat it periodically, at times agreed with the Council’s contract manager. This is a service contract for survey work, intended to give the Council a recurring way to assess employee wellbeing. Delivery is in Cambridgeshire, for the Council based in Cambourne.

The Council invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The submission deadline set was 23 October 2026 at 1pm. The contract is for an initial one-year term, from 16 November 2026 to 15 November 2027, with options to extend year by year for a further two years. The estimated value is £50,000 excluding VAT (£60,000 including VAT). Price accounts for 30% of the evaluation and quality for 70%. The procurement is a single lot.

This opportunity suits survey providers with relevant employee wellbeing expertise and the qualifications and experience to design and deliver a workforce survey. Suppliers need capacity to carry out an initial survey and repeat the work periodically, coordinating the timing with the Council’s contract manager. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses, so specialist consultancies as well as larger research firms may be well placed to compete. The strong emphasis on quality means bidders should be able to demonstrate the soundness of their survey approach and their ability to provide a reliable service over the initial term and any extensions.
