Occupational Health Services & Health Checks

Audit Scotland has initiated a public procurement process for providing Occupational Health Services and Health Checks across various locations in Scotland. The procurement is being conducted under an open procedure, guided by the legal framework of CELEX 32014L0024. This tender falls into the health services category, with particular focus on delivering pre-employment, management occupational health, and confidential counselling services.

It initially calls for a contract running for 36 months with the possibility of a 12-month extension. The tender process is currently in the 'active' stage, making it imperative for interested businesses to submit their electronic responses before the deadline on 30th January 2025, using Public Contracts Scotland's facilities. This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses, especially those experienced in the healthcare, occupational health, and professional consultancy sectors, to grow their portfolio by forming a partnership with a reputable public entity like Audit Scotland.

Well-suited businesses would include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with a robust capability to deliver quality health services, particularly those with General Medical Council-registered doctors and appropriately qualified nursing staff. The selection criteria require businesses to demonstrate financial stability, a sound supply chain management system, and adherence to professional and technical qualifications such as ISO 27001 certification or process. Engaging in a contract of this scale not only provides significant financial turnover but also strengthens the business's reputation in public sector collaborations.
