## Summary

The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) is conducting a public procurement process titled "Covid Spot Check - Visits," focusing on health services. The procurement, classified under services, is currently in the Award stage, having concluded with two active contracts awarded. The total contract value is £5,000,000, with a contract period running from 3rd May 2021 to 31st March 2022, which may be extended for another year subject to funding. This tender includes an open procurement method, allowing a wide array of bidders to participate in the initiative aimed at ensuring Covid-safe workplaces across Great Britain.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities for companies specializing in health and safety compliance, particularly those capable of providing professional visiting services for spot checks at various workplaces. Providers that can rapidly adapt to evolving requirements, exhibit flexibility in service delivery across different regions, and respond swiftly to local Covid outbreaks will be well-suited to compete. The initiative encourages collaboration, as subcontracting is permitted, allowing smaller firms to partner with larger entities to meet coverage and scale demands effectively.
