## Summary

The Chief Constable for Devon and Cornwall Police has initiated a tender process for Physiotherapy Services. The procurement falls under the 'services' category with the main objective of providing fast-track physiotherapy assessment and treatment services for staff with musculoskeletal conditions to aid in their early return to work or full operational duties. The tender, worth £625,000 GBP, is currently in the active stage, with a contract period of 1080 days and an option for a 24-month extension. The submission deadline for bids is on May 31, 2023, and electronic/written submission methods are accepted.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the healthcare or physiotherapy industry to provide services to the South West Police Forces. Companies specializing in musculoskeletal treatments and employee wellbeing programs would be well-suited to compete for this tender. The Chief Constable for Devon and Cornwall Police is the buying organization overseeing this procurement process, aiming to enhance staff physical wellbeing through rapid access to treatment services, ultimately supporting employees in fulfilling their roles and reducing absenteeism due to musculoskeletal conditions.

## Notice

The South West Police Forces wishes to support early return to work and/or full operational duties for operational officers and staff who are suffering with acute musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions or injuries by providing 'fast track' physiotherapy assessment and treatment services. MSK absence is one of the largest absenteeism categories and this service is utilised to help manage short term and long term absence. The objective of having the physiotherapy provision is to provide assistance through rapid access to treatment for MSK injury: to ensure individuals are fit to undertake their role and to promote the physical wellbeing of staff. This is not a substitute for NHS treatment, but is used to provide quicker response for employees with acute pain before their NHS treatment becomes available. Therefore, a predominant feature of the treatment provided must be patient education and provision of instructions about the rehabilitation of an injury or illness.
