Additionally, the on-site service delivery ensures business operations are minimally disrupted, making it attractive for innovative service providers capable of flexible operational models and efficient staff management to meet the demands of large-scale seasonal health programmes. ## Notice The Authority is conducting the procurement using an open procedure in accordance with the requirements of the Procurement Legislation and as established by Section 6(6) of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 for the purpose of procuring the Services described in the Specification. The Authority is wishing to procure a Provider to deliver Influenza vaccinations to its workforce as a Service in various on-site locations across Lancashire. This could include office settings, highways depots and schools. This Service is offered as a staff benefit and supports the annual flu plan developed by the Department of Health and Social Care, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and NHS England. The Authority is looking to open this opportunity to the market as an open competition to ensure value for money through a longer-term contract of an initial 2 years plus up to an additional potential 1 year extension. The successful Provider will deliver immunisation against influenza to those identified as being eligible by the Authority. The Service will operate as an on-site clinic model between the period of the 5th October 2026 to 30th November 2026 and 1st October 2027 to 30th November 2027. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Each year, the Department of Health and Social Care, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and NHS England develop an annual flu plan to guide local arrangements of seasonal flu vaccination delivery, based upon a co-ordinated and evidence-based approach. As a further support to this agenda, LCC undertake an annual workforce flu vaccination programme to promote the uptake of vaccination to frontline workers and business critical staff, to reduce the impact of flu in the population whilst supporting the improvement of staff absenteeism figures due to the flu virus. Results on service delivery of this programme are fed into local A+E Delivery Boards in support of winter planning by helping to vaccinate frontline staff, supporting the reduction in unplanned hospital admissions and pressure on A+E services. Raising awareness of the importance of the flu vaccination through national campaigns delivered locally, staff briefing sessions ensures informed consent for employees plus a dedicated mailbox for employee queries is also run throughout the flu season. Delivery of the on-site flu vaccine to LCC workforce on behalf of the Lancashire County Council Health Protection Team (LCC HPT), maximises protection for self, family and friends and particularly for those working frontline with high-risk, vulnerable groups and business critical services. Delivery of the on-site flu clinics enables a greater level of accessibility by delivering the free flu vaccination at site of work and out-of-hours if required, with zero disruption to working hours and responsibilities. Renewal: The contract will have an initial term of 2 years with Lancashire County Council retaining the right to extend the contract by any number of defined periods provided that the total contract period does not exceed 1 year. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/050574-2026 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning, Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 May 2026 | | Submission deadline | 1 Jun 2026 | | Future notice date | 16 Mar 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £165,000 | | Lots value | £165,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LANCASHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | PRESTON | | Post town | Preston | | Postcode | PR1 0LD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD4 Lancashire | | ITL 3 | TLD45 Mid Lancashire | | Local authority | Preston | | Electoral ward | City Centre | | Westminster constituency | Preston | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England), TLD4 Lancashire | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 29 May 2026 at 07:36 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/050574-2026 - 1 May 2026 at 09:12 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/040341-2026 - 28 Jan 2026 at 16:23 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007737-2026 ## Notice URLs - https://www.lancashire.gov.uk - https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/iSupplier/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
