Summary, notice description and lot information
The procurement process initiated by Cambridgeshire County Council in collaboration with Peterborough City Council focuses on the provision of the National Child Measurement Programme, an open procedure under the Provider Selection Regime. Classified within the health services industry, this programme assesses the height and weight of primary school children within the regions of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. 16.
The opportunity provided included key evaluation criteria focusing on quality and innovation, delivering social value, and addressing regional health inequalities. The procurement method was competitive, ensuring best practice and effective public service delivery. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for organisations specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in public health initiatives and data analysis.
SMEs such as Everyone Health Limited, which was awarded this contract, are particularly well-suited to engage in this type of service delivery, given their ability to offer innovative solutions and ensure robust performance monitoring. Companies that can demonstrate added social value, enhance service integration, and successfully manage population-level data in addressing local health needs will find opportunities to leverage such contracts for expansion and enhanced regional presence.
The NCMP is a national programme which involves the weighing and measuring of primary school children. It is a mandated Public Health function, which must be commissioned by the Local Authorities who have direct responsibility for it. School age children in Reception (aged four to five years) and Year 6 (aged ten to eleven years) have their height and weight measured routinely each academic year, and parents/carers are sent a feedback letter with the child's weight status (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or very overweight). The aim of the NCMP is to gather population-level data to increase understanding of weight issues in children, monitor changes, and inform future commissioning and childhood obesity strategies. Locally, the data also helps to identify the areas with the most need (often more deprived areas) and help target interventions to these schools/geographical locations.
