## Summary

The University of Sunderland is seeking to engage one or multiple service providers for Occupational Health Services, which is scheduled to commence approximately in October 2020, with an initial contract term of two years and the possibility of two additional 12-month extensions. This tender, classified under the 'Health and social work services' category, is currently in the Award stage, with an estimated budget of £390,000 across three lots. The submission deadline for tenders was 4th August 2020, with the implementation of the awarded services set to begin on 11th January 2021.

This public procurement opportunity presents substantial potential for growth for businesses specialising in health services, including but not limited to, occupational health consulting, pre-employment assessments, and related medical services. Companies with capabilities in delivering comprehensive health support for educational institutions, especially those that are capable of scaling their services in response to fluctuating demands at the start of academic years, would find this tender particularly suitable. The segmented nature of the tender allows for smaller providers to successfully compete alongside larger firms, enhancing the overall inclusivity of the procurement process.

## Notice

The University of Sunderland is looking to engage with either one or a number of service providers for the provision of Occupational Health Services, commencing approximately October 2020 for 2 years, with a possible 2 x 12 month extensions. The tender has been split into lots 1, 2 & 3 and will cover a range of services from general occupational health services for students (and occassionaly staff), such as pre-employment assessments, immunisation programmes, blood tests, to additional ongoing support and related services, all in partnership with the University. Students may require assessements at commencement of studies or work placements, and can continue to require occupational health assistance throughout their time at University. Therefore, there will be a higher demand at the start of new student intakes. We estimate around PS260k excluding VAT across 3 lots over 4 years', however there are no guarantees on spend levels, we reserve the right to spend a further 50% of the anticipated budget, subject to changes across the University and legislative requirements for the duration of the award. The top 3 shortlisted suppliers per lot will be invited to a presentation/demonstration approximately week commencing 10th August 2020 (unless they are unable to catch up)
