## Summary

The Leicestershire Police has awarded a contract for the provision of a Force Medical Officer service for a 1-year contract period. The procurement method used was a direct single tender action below threshold. The contract period starts on August 18, 2022, and ends on August 17, 2023. The tender was awarded to Purosearch, with a contract value of £139,200. The procurement stage was an award, and the anticipated service delivery region is East Midlands, United Kingdom.

This opportunity to provide medical personnel services for the police force in the East Midlands region can be advantageous for SMEs and VCSEs looking to expand their service provision into the public sector. Businesses with experience in supplying medical personnel to law enforcement agencies would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The focus on continuity of service and expert advice provision highlights the critical nature of this procurement for the operational effectiveness of the police force.

## Notice

This is a contract award notice for a medical officer for 1 year. It is a single tender action and is to provide a continuation of service and contract for the force medical officer. It is of high importance that there is no gap in his service as this would be a significant risk to the force if an FMO is not available to provide expert advice. There is a very limited number of qualified OH physicians and an even smaller number with experience of working in the police service.
