## Summary

The Cambridgeshire County Council is currently seeking suppliers for the "22014 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Body Removals Service," which is categorised under funeral and related services. This procurement is at the tender stage and is expected to conclude on 15 July 2022. The contract, valued at £446,260, includes two lots: one for body removals in Peterborough (£178,504) and another for Cambridgeshire (£267,756), each with a contract period of 4 years. Interested suppliers can submit their bids electronically via the specified procurement portal.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in funeral and transportation services, particularly those with capabilities in body removals and related logistics. Companies that specialise in emergency response, funeral care, and transport between health facilities would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Suppliers must be prepared to handle sensitive situations, including responses to mass fatality incidents, which may require coordination with local authorities and health services.

## Notice

The Authority is looking for successful suppliers to remove the deceased from the community and transport them back to the supplier's own premises, and then transport on to the mortuary if and when a post mortem is required. In Cambridgeshire and Peterborough pathology services are provided at Cambridge University Hospital (Addenbrookes) in Cambridge and Peterborough City Hospital in Peterborough. The contract will also require additional transport of bodies between hospitals and partner sites both within and outside the county boundaries. We will ask suppliers to provide prices for a range of options in this regard. In the event of a catastrophe or mass fatality incident, suppliers of Coronial Service Body Removals will be required to undertake supporting activities such as removing deceased or body parts from the disaster site or transferring other deceased from the Mass Fatality Control site (this is likely to be Peterborough City Hospital). In these circumstances the Authority would look to the current suppliers to co-ordinate any required removals directly with the Event Gold Command or their nominated officers. We will ask suppliers to provide a price for this co-ordination.
