Summary of the contracting process

The University of Cumbria procured occupational health services for its staff. The requirement is for health services supporting the university’s workforce, rather than goods or construction work. The university is based in Cumbria, and the services are intended for delivery in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to People Asset Management Ltd. It was a below-threshold process, with one lot. The contract was signed on 20 October 2026 and runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with an option for one further 12-month period, extending the possible end date to 31 December 2029. The contract value is £125,000 excluding VAT, or £150,000 including VAT. No award date or evaluation basis is stated in the published process information.

This award shows demand from the University of Cumbria for occupational health services for its staff, procured below the public procurement threshold and as a single lot. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to provide staff occupational health services and be able to deliver them for a university workforce in the UK. The selected supplier is a large provider, indicating that the buyer has engaged an established supplier for this service. The published requirement does not set out particular clinical disciplines, accreditations, staffing levels or service arrangements, so these cannot be treated as confirmed requirements for a future competition.
