Employee Assistance Programme

The London Borough of Camden has successfully completed a procurement process for their Employee Assistance Programme, focusing on the health services sector. This direct award contract, valued at £66,000, was executed through a limited procurement method using the ESPO framework agreement 985B_23 and classified under CPV code 85100000. The contract, signed on 1st October 2024, is intended to provide an employee assistance programme for staff members within the London Borough of Camden, located in the UKI31 region.

The purchasing authority, acting as the buyer, is a regional or local authority based in London. The award stage has been reached, with the contract status marked as active as of 8th May 2025. This contract offers significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in employee health and wellness services, particularly those adept at managing such programmes within a public sector framework.

Large enterprises with experience in government contracts, like Work Stress Management Limited, who have been awarded the contract, would be well-suited to such procurement processes. The framework for the direct award, circumventing the usual competitive tendering phases, creates an advantageous position for companies familiar with framework agreements and who can offer competitive pricing models efficiently.
