What the notice says

On the 15th of April, the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) held an Early Market Engagement Event for Next Generation' Occupational Health and Wellbeing Services with a view to go out to the Market for these services in Autumn 2026. This was followed up by a number of 1:1 sessions with Suppliers to gain a greater understanding around delivery options and market capability. A further Market Engagement event is planned for Tuesday 1st September 2026 at 11:00-12:30 via Microsoft Teams. This will be an opportunity for the project team to update the OH Market on our progress, present our preferred Delivery Model for next Generation OH Health and Wellbeing Services and provide an update on procurement opportunities. There will be a chance to feedback initial thoughts and ask questions at this session. As part of this engagement, suppliers will be invited to provide feedback on these delivery plans in 1:1 sessions held on the 9th and 10th September 2026. Potential providers are encouraged to attend the market engagement event and subsequent 1:1 sessions (please see engagement section). Please note - These services are likely to be tendered under "light touch regulations" so MPS preserve the flexibility accordingly.
