## Summary

The South West Police Procurement Department (SWPPD) is conducting the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) tender, aimed at providing welfare assistance to staff and their families across five Police Forces in the South West Region of the United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the health and social work services category, and the contract has been awarded to Health Assured Limited for a total value of £300,000. The contract period commenced on 1st July 2017 and will run until 30th June 2020. The procurement method was an open procedure, with the tender process successfully completed and the award notice published on 1st July 2017.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in employee health services, counselling, and welfare support, particularly those looking to expand their operations within the public sector. Given the emphasis on supporting psychological well-being and reducing absenteeism, firms with expertise in company health services, social work, and guidance-based services will find this procurement relevant, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering tailored welfare solutions to the police forces involved.

## Notice

The primary purpose of the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) is to provide rapid short term access to welfare assistance and support to Staff and their Families. Psychological absence is one of the Forces largest areas for absence, and therefore requires a proactive and reactive approach, both at work and home whilst also reducing short term and long term absenteeism for the Forces. This contract is for the provision of services for the five Police Forces in the South West Region (namely Avon & Somerset, Devon & Cornwall, Dorset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire).
