## Summary

Cheshire West and Chester Council procured occupational health services for its organisation. The requirement is classified as health services and covers delivery in North West England. The work is a public-sector employee health and occupational health provision rather than the supply of goods or construction works. It was arranged as a single service requirement for the council, with the selected provider responsible for delivering the occupational health offer. The buyer is Cheshire West and Chester Council, a local authority based in Ellesmere Port. The procurement falls under the light-touch regime and was treated as a below-threshold requirement. Its scope is relevant to occupational health providers, healthcare management organisations and businesses able to deliver ongoing health services for a local authority workforce.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Cheshire West and Chester Council selected INNOVATE HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT GROUP LIMITED, an SME, as the supplier. The contract was signed on 31 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 October 2029. It has a gross value of £600,000, with a stated value excluding tax of £500,000. The buyer holds two 12-month extension options, giving a maximum possible end date of 31 October 2031. The process used a below-threshold route described as unknown, under the light-touch regime. The award covers the single occupational health services lot, which is active. The award value and contract period apply to this award and should not be treated as a wider programme total.

This award shows established demand from Cheshire West and Chester Council for a substantial, multi-year occupational health service delivered across North West England. A future competitor would need to provide occupational health and wider health-service capability suitable for a local authority workforce, with the operational capacity to support delivery over several years and manage continuity across a council contract. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large national healthcare group. Providers with experience in occupational health service management, public-sector delivery and sustained contract mobilisation would be well placed to assess similar requirements from this buyer when the service is next considered.
