## Summary

Nottingham Trent University is conducting a public procurement process for the provision of physiotherapy services, designed to enhance support for employees experiencing musculoskeletal issues. This tender, classified under the CPV code 85142100 for physiotherapy services, has a total value of £80,000 and involves an open procurement method. The key dates include an expiration for Expressions of Interest on 5th April 2021, and the closing date for the Invitation to Tender (ITT) set for 7th April 2021, with the contract expected to commence on 1st June 2021 and concluding on 1st June 2025. The delivery will cover the Nottingham area, particularly across various NTU campuses.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in health services. Companies that can offer flexible physiotherapy solutions, particularly those that can adapt to post-COVID-19 requirements, will be well-positioned to compete. With a growing demand for accessible physiotherapy services—highlighted by an increase in referrals noted during the 2018/19 academic year—businesses that can provide high-quality, responsive care will have the potential to thrive in this evolving market.

## Notice

Deadline for Expressions of Interest - 5th April 2021 Closing Date for ITT - 7th April 2021 The NTU Occupational Safety & Wellbeing department is seeking to appoint a Supplier to provide the University with a physiotherapy service of assessment, advice and treatment for University employees who present with musculoskeletal problems. Due to the every-changing nature of the work environment and external driving factors, the University needs to increase access to this service provision across all NTU campuses and enhance online provision to support management of increased muscular-skeletal absences across the university. Post Covid-19 restrictions, the successful Supplier needs to be able to offer a service off campus due to occupational health demand on the space currently utilised by the existing physiotherapy service. The current service is one day a week with access to one physiotherapist, as indicated the service moved to a telephone consultation service during Covid-19. We are aiming to widen access to this provision and the perceived increase in referrals for this service requires us to review the University's future requirements. updating the provision and ensuring ease of access to all employees with positive outcomes is key to the delivery of this provision. In the 2018/19 academic year, 140 new clients required access to this service provision and on average requiring 6 appointments each.
