## Summary

The procurement process initiated by East Suffolk Council seeks to secure Occupational Health Services, reflecting the council's commitment to staff wellbeing within the health and social work services industry. The tender, identified as GB-Lowestoft: Occupational Health Services, was published on 23rd April 2020, and is currently in the active stage with an open procurement method. The tender period is set to close on 15th May 2020, leading to a contract commencement date of 1st July 2020, which will run until 30th June 2023. The estimated contract value ranges from £100,000 to £500,000, with the delivery taking place in Lowestoft, located in the East of England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can provide flexible and robust occupational health services. Companies specialising in health management, employee wellbeing initiatives, and absence management solutions would be especially well-suited to compete. The council is looking for service providers to collaborate closely and deliver professional support that aligns with their health and wellbeing agenda, making it an attractive opportunity for relevant businesses to engage and expand their service offerings.

## Notice

East Suffolk Council considers the health and wellbeing of staff to be paramount in its ability to deliver high quality services. Achieving a balance between the needs of our employees and the delivery of the organisation's objectives is not always easy. We expect the service provider to work collaboratively with us, offering professional support and advice to complement our absence management policies and procedures and health and wellbeing agenda. Sickness absence accounts for a considerable proportion of lost working time and the average cost of absence is significant. Our aim is to reduce this by investing in an occupational health provision that is flexible and robust enough to meet the organisation's needs. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
