## Summary

The London Borough of Bromley is currently engaged in a public procurement process for "Public Health Funerals," classified under the "Other community, social and personal services" category. This open procedure, which is in the award stage, aims to establish a supplier for funeral services mandated by Section 46 of the Public Health & Control of Diseases Act 1984. The tender period concluded on 25th March 2019, and the awarded contract period extends from 20th September 2019 to 21st September 2019, with an estimated contract value of £160,000. Services will be delivered within the South East region of the United Kingdom. The contact for inquiries is Jon Butterfill, reachable via email at jon.butterfill@bromley.gov.uk.

This procurement opportunity allows businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in funeral services, to compete for contracts that support essential community needs. With an average of sixteen public health funerals arranged annually, companies in the funeral services sector specialising in cost-effective arrangements may find significant opportunities for growth. The expected variability in the number of funerals provides a dynamic environment for suppliers to adapt and respond effectively to community requirements.

## Notice

The London Borough of Bromley is seeking a Supplier to provide Public Health Funeral Services. Under Section 46 of the Public Health & Control of Diseases Act 1984, the Council has a statutory obligation to carry out funeral arrangement for a person who dies in the community, within the borough of Bromley, where there is no arrangement in place, or where the deceased does not have anybody willing or able to undertake the funeral arrangements. A public funeral can be arranged for a deceased person with savings or other assets that amount to less than the cost of a benchmarked funeral. The Council averages sixteen (16) Public Health Funerals each year, but this can vary upwards or downwards and the Council cannot guarantee the number of funerals ordered each year.
