## Summary

The Highland Council, in collaboration with High Life Highland, initiated a tender for the provision of an Occupational Health Service. This procurement falls within the health services industry category (CPV code 85100000) and is located in the UK region UKM6. The procurement process commenced on 6th December 2022, with an updated tender deadline set for 18th January 2023. The anticipated contract period was from 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2025. Despite the procurement reaching the award stage, the process was ultimately unsuccessful, with no contract being awarded as of 17th February 2025.

This tender presented significant opportunities for businesses specialising in occupational health, health and safety services, and physiotherapy services. It required a comprehensive delivery model including on-site and off-site consultations, health assessments, and surveillance, making it ideal for enterprises with capabilities in diverse service provision methods. The open procedure method ensured fair competition, and businesses strong in quality delivery (70% quality and 30% price criteria) would have had a competitive edge. Despite its unsuccessful outcome, similar future tenders from The Highland Council could still provide meaningful growth opportunities.
