De Montfort University market engagement: Employee Assistance Programme and Employee Occupational Health Services
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
De Montfort University, located in Leicester, is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for an Employee Assistance Programme and Employee Occupational Health Services. This initiative falls under the service category, with a gross procurement value of £432,000. The procurement process is intended to address personnel, payroll, and company health services within the UKF region.
Preliminary market engagement was initiated on 14th November 2025, with a live supplier engagement event scheduled for 24th November 2025. Responses are due by 1st December 2025. This planning stage aims to finalise service specifications and procurement routes, anticipating that the procurement process will be launched in early 2026 and contract awards completed by the end of May 2026.
Service provision under the new contracts is set to begin on 8th July 2026. This procurement process presents substantial business growth opportunities for companies specialising in personnel and payroll services, as well as company health services. Given its scale and requirements, it is especially advantageous for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering comprehensive employee assistance and occupational health services.
Engaging in this contract will allow businesses not only to collaborate with a reputable academic institution like De Montfort University but also to enhance their market footprint in the public sector by delivering essential health and personnel services. Participating companies will have the chance to align their offerings with the outlined specifications and potentially establish a long-term relationship, considering the contract period extends to 2029 with a possibility of renewal.
The aim of this supplier engagement process is for the University to share our present thinking around the requirement, contract format and proposed procurement process for our future Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) and Employee Occupational Health Services (OH) requirements, obtain a better idea of the current capability and readiness of the market with regard to provision of these services, and to assess whether our outline requirement for supply of these services is realistic and in line with what is available.
