The contract value is anticipated to be within the range of 300,000 to 420,000 GDP Orkney is located off the northern coast of the Scottish mainland and covers 100,000 hectares spread over approximately 70 islands, 19 of which are inhabited by a population of approximately 21,500. The Authority was established as a Unitary Authority in 1974 and is the islands largest employer with 2100 employees (1566 Full Time Equivalents). The Authority currently provides a full range of statutory and non-statutory services to the community through 5 services: Chief Executive Services, Education, Leisure and Housing (including Orkney College); Corporate Services; Development and Infrastructure; and Orkney Health and Care. Additionally the Authority also operates Orkney Ferries and Orkney Towage as arms-length Companies, with separate management boards, which for the purposes of this tender should be considered as part of the Authority. The current Council Occupational Health service is provided on a 'pay as you go' basis and is provided through the NHS Grampian Occupational Health Service and a local independent Occupational Health Doctor. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY282175 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award 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 | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 May 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 5 May 2017 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Unsuccessful | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | ORKNEY ISLANDS COUNCIL | | Locality | KIRKWALL | | Post town | Kirkwall | | Postcode | KW15 1NY | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Orkney Islands | | Electoral ward | Kirkwall East | | Westminster constituency | Orkney and Shetland | | Delivery location | TLM65 Orkney Islands | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 5 May 2017 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY282175 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY282175 Provision of Occupational Health Services - A suitably qualified contractor is sought to provide a comprehensive occupational health service to all employees of Orkney Islands Council.
