The contract is set to start on January 1, 2023, with a value of £100,000. The tender period ends on October 20, 2022. The services fall under the "Health services" category with a minimum value of £50,000. The contract is for an initial 12-month period, with a potential extension for a further 2 years. The procurement method is an open procedure. This opportunity presents a chance for businesses in the health services sector to provide occupational health physician services to Shropshire Council. Suitable organisations should be well-versed in occupational health consultations, management referrals, fitness assessments, and local government pension schemes. Businesses operating in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. With the contract value of £100,000 over potentially 3 years, this tender offers a significant opportunity for growth and long-term collaboration. ## Notice Shropshire Council requests the submission of tenders in connection with the provision of consultancy services outlined below. Shropshire Council operates an in-house Occupational Health (OH) Service. The team is line managed by the Occupational Health, Safety and Wellbeing Manager. The OH team consists of five employees, three are professional and qualified Occupational Health Advisors (OHA), one of which is the Senior OHA who takes a clinical lead and supervisory role. All OH advisors undertake the provision of guidance, management referrals, medical pre-employment assessments, return to work support/advice, fitness to work reviews, immunisations and vaccination programmes and monitoring employees at risk from exposure to working methods/processes. The occupational health and safety service provides a commercial occupational health and safety consultancy to several organisations. Shropshire and Wrekin Fire Authority (S&WFA) has a contract with us to provide two occupational health physician clinics each month for asbestos medicals, new starter medicals, management referrals, advice on fitness to continue in the role and review of non-uniformed new starter health questionnaires (medical examination may be required). Due to the expiry of the current interim tender, we are seeking an occupational health physician to carry out a clinic once a month for Shropshire Council. This clinic is to include both on and off-site management referrals (eight per clinic), hand arm vibration (HAVS) assessments when required, provide support to the OHA's and requires knowledge of local government pension schemes for the assessment of ill health retirement applications/deferred benefit applications as the independent registered medial practitioner (IRMP). The successful occupational health physician is expected to provide their own equipment for HAVS assessments. The OH physician will have access to a consultation room in Shirehall with desk, chairs and internet access to carry out on-site clinics when required. Please see the tender documentation for further information. The contract will be for an initial 12 months period commencing on the 1st January 2023 with an option to extend for a further 2 years. This may be subject to change after 12 months but not guaranteed. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ab7ac818-7ed9-4f2a-9398-4b3735ee359b | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Sep 2022 | | Submission deadline | 20 Oct 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Jan 2023 - 31 Dec 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SHROPSHIRE COUNCIL | | Locality | SHREWSBURY | | Post town | Shrewsbury | | Postcode | SY2 6ND | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG2 Shropshire and Staffordshire | | ITL 3 | TLG22 Shropshire | | Local authority | Shropshire | | Electoral ward | Abbey | | Westminster constituency | Shrewsbury | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 29 Sep 2022 at 08:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ab7ac818-7ed9-4f2a-9398-4b3735ee359b ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ab7ac818-7ed9-4f2a-9398-4b3735ee359b 29th September 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-Shrewsbury:-ROCV-025---The-Provision-of-Occupational-Health-Physician-Services/B4CM346GGY Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
