The engagement end date for interested suppliers is set for 27th May 2021. This initiative, classified under health and social work services (CPV code 85000000), forms part of a strategic assessment ahead of the expiry of their existing contract in January 2022. The budget allocated for this consultation is £500,000, with the service delivery region being Yorkshire and the Humber in the United Kingdom. This tender process presents valuable opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs), to engage with Sheffield City Council as they prepare for future service delivery. Companies specialising in occupational health, wellbeing services, and employee assistance programmes will find themselves well-suited to participate in this market analysis, allowing them to showcase their offerings and potentially influence the requirements of the forthcoming contract. This engagement process encourages feedback from the market, which can lead to enhanced service models and collaboration possibilities within the sector. ## Notice Sheffield City Council (SCC) is conducting this preliminary market consultation to understand the supply market's ability to deliver specialist Occupational Health and Wellbeing & EAP support and advice. The responses received will help us shape our requirements and determine the strategy we will take to achieve our desired outcome. This preliminary market consultation therefore does not constitute a formal tender and will not result in the letting of a contract. This process is solely to test the market to gather information and ascertain the level of interest in this service. There are therefore no formal criteria which we will use to judge your responses, and it is not our intention to provide any feedback. The Council has an ongoing requirement for Occupational Health and Wellbeing and Employee Assistance Programme services. The existing contract with People Asset Management (PAM) comes to an end in January 2022 therefore the Council is seeking to explore the options available in the market to inform the future delivery of this service. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9223a7d9-9fff-499b-af62-9e512ea9ae12 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 May 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 27 May 2021 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £500,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S1 4PL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield Central | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 12 May 2021 at 10:09 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9223a7d9-9fff-499b-af62-9e512ea9ae12 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9223a7d9-9fff-499b-af62-9e512ea9ae12 12th May 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=18f51aa4-feb2-eb11-810c-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
