## Summary

Southampton City Council, a regional authority, is in the planning stage of a procurement process for Occupational Health Services, classified under the CPV code 85100000. This pre-market engagement questionnaire aims to gather information ahead of a potential future tender. The deadline for submitting responses is 6th December 2024 at 10am, and all documents must be uploaded in an Open Document format via the ProActis e-Tendering Portal. The engagement seeks input on numerous aspects, including data transfer, system connectivity, single sign-on, self-serve pre-employment checks, and the ability to hold virtual and face-to-face case conferences among other functionalities. The location for the services is in Southampton (UKJ32 region).

This pre-market engagement opens avenues for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those proficient in occupational health solutions, to influence the forthcoming tender requirements. Companies offering advanced data migration, intuitive systems, and robust customer service would be well-suited to respond. It's an excellent opportunity for businesses which can provide comprehensive health and safety services, high-quality managerial support systems, and proactive issue resolution mechanisms, to showcase their capabilities and potentially secure a valuable contract in public health services.
