## Summary

Essex County Council (ECC) is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for a Health and Safety Management System. This initiative aims to replace and rationalise the various health and safety management systems currently in use within the Council and schools in the East of England, specifically Chelmsford. The engagement end date for this process is set for 23rd February 2018. Interested parties are encouraged to review the attached Planning for the Future document and respond with a completed questionnaire by 7th August 2017.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for software companies specialising in health and safety management solutions, particularly those capable of delivering integrated systems. Businesses that understand the needs of public sector organisations and can demonstrate a robust capability in managing compliance and operational effectiveness would be well-positioned to compete for this contract, potentially expanding their services within the local government sector.

## Notice

Essex County Council (ECC) currently uses a number of different systems for various health and safety management purposes within the Council and for schools. The latter includes both those where ECC is the employer and customer (i.e. schools, and potentially other organisations, which purchase H&S services from us). Over the next year or so ECC will need to replace at least one of these systems and has the opportunity to change its current provider for another. Therefore we are exploring options for rationalising the number of systems and processes across the service. Additional information: Service Providers are requested to read the attached Planning for the Future document and submit a completed questionnaire to the e-mail address provided by 7th August 2017
