Summary of the contracting process

West Dunbartonshire Council commissioned occupational health services to support its staff. The requirement covers the provision of occupational health services for council employees, delivered across West Dunbartonshire. It is a services contract, classified under CPV 75122000 for administrative healthcare services. The council acted as the buying organisation and central purchasing body. The procurement comprised one requirement covering the occupational health service appointment. The service is therefore relevant to occupational health providers able to support public-sector workforces and provide advice or assessments for employees. Suppliers whose work is limited to general healthcare, without an occupational health service capability, are unlikely to be well matched to this requirement. The requirement relates specifically to supporting the council’s staff rather than delivering clinical services to the general public.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Dunbartonshire Council used a limited procedure: a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, made through a framework. The council stated that the number of suitable frameworks and matching providers made a direct award through one framework the best route. People Asset Management Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single requirement. The contract value is £480,000 in GBP. The contract is active and was signed on 28 August 2026. One bid was recorded, submitted electronically; none came from an SME. The procurement was treated as outside the scope of the relevant directive and covered by the GPA. No separate scoring or evaluation criteria are stated.

This award demonstrates established demand from West Dunbartonshire Council for outsourced occupational health support for its workforce. A future competitor would need a service capable of supporting council employees across West Dunbartonshire and of delivering the practical occupational health provision required by a local authority. The route used is commercially important: the council selected a supplier by direct award from a framework, so businesses seeking similar work would need either to be an eligible supplier on an appropriate framework or to work through a framework route that the council can use. The single recorded bid and the selection of a large occupational health provider indicate that credible competitors should be able to offer a complete, dependable service at public-sector scale, rather than a narrow or ad hoc consultancy.
