## Summary

Cornwall Council is seeking to procure Health and Safety Assessment Services as part of their planning process. This procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a milestone date set for engagement to conclude by 31 December 2018. The council is exploring options after receiving limited responses in a previous tender round. The services will be conducted across multiple sites in the South West of England, with expectations that 10-20 sites will require assessments concurrently, peaking at over 60 during the summer school holidays.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and safety services, particularly those familiar with site assessments and regulatory compliance. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate capacity to manage significant workloads and maintain consistent monitoring across multiple sites will be well-positioned to compete. Interested suppliers are encouraged to engage with Cornwall Council to discuss their capabilities and insights, potentially paving the way for future contracts and growth in this sector.

## Notice

Cornwall Council recently undertook a procurement process to appoint a consultant to carry out the below activity, however there was only a very limited response from the market. As a result the Council is seeking to speak to likely suppliers to understand the reasons for this and therefore the best way to retender for the service. Interested parties are therefore invited to email John Hitchens to arrange a time to discuss the above. Clients have a responsibility to monitor contractors, making sure they are working safely, in order to protect staff and everyone who may be affected by the work. Although Contractors are required to be responsible for their own health and safety performance under CDM 2015; regular checks must still be made by the Client to make sure that this is the case. Such duties include assessing and reporting on the site health and safety performance of Contractors to ensure site activities are being conducted in a safe manner and in compliance with current regulations. As a result Cornwall Council is seeking to appoint Consultants to undertake site assessments, monitor and report on activities to ensure that this duty is carried out. Such duties include assessing and reporting on the site health and safety performance of Contractors to ensure site activities are being conducted in a safe manner and in compliance with current regulations. It is expected that as a minimum 10-20 sites will be active concurrently, however during the school's summer holiday period the number of sites can peak at over 60 sites each requiring assessment at least once every 2 weeks. In their tender responses consultants must clearly demonstrate their ability to manage the work load.
