## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service (SPS) has successfully completed the procurement process for the Occupational Health Services (OHS) Framework Agreement, identified as "SPS-02193". This collaborative procurement is on behalf of approximately 40 Scottish public bodies from various sectors, targeting broad health services under the Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) code 85100000. The contract, awarded to Optima Health UK Ltd with a value of £3,909,295, was signed on 21 March 2025. The services, encompassing pre-employment medical screening, statutory & non-statutory health surveillance, health promotion activities, and various forms of health assessments, will be provided across Scotland within agreed service levels.

This framework agreement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health services sector, particularly those specialising in occupational health. The broad scope of services required suggests a substantial market for providers able to offer comprehensive health solutions, including psychological support, physiotherapy, and health surveillance. Businesses with strong credentials in health management and capability to operate across multiple locations in Scotland will find it advantageous to engage with this framework. The attributes sought, such as SEQOHS accreditation and personnel with professional registrations, imply that well-established and technically competent health service providers have a competitive edge in securing such contracts in future procurement cycles.
