This initiative falls under the health services industry category and aims to deliver evidence-based, drug-free seminars to assist individuals in stopping smoking. The process is governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, and the contract is expected to run from 1st March 2026 to 28th February 2027, with opportunities for extensions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for service providers specialising in health and wellness, particularly those experienced in delivering structured group programs and offering alternative methods for smoking cessation. Given the focus on priority groups such as workers in routine and manual roles, and individuals with mental health conditions, businesses with expertise in engaging diverse communities in health initiatives will find this contract particularly suited to their strengths. Furthermore, the project’s need for comprehensive monitoring and compliance with NICE guidelines suggests that firms with robust reporting and evaluation frameworks will have a competitive edge. This tender offers opportunities to expand service provision and develop partnerships with a regional authority like Cambridgeshire County Council.
