Official UK procurement notice
Annual Staff Health Care Checks
Authority: Mining Remediation Authority (Central government)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Mining Remediation Authority is initiating Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) to inform suppliers of an upcoming procurement for the delivery of annual staff health checks across the UK. This notice invites suppliers to provide insights that will help shape the final specification and procurement strategy. To support engagement, Slido is now open for the submission of questions in advance of the supplier session. The platform will remain open until 15th May 2026 and all questions will help inform the session as well as the development of the procurement approach.
The Authority currently operates two different levels of annual preventative health assessments, reflecting the differing requirements of specific roles within the organisation. The medicals are an employee benefit provided to members of staff and considered a key component of the Authority's approach to supporting employee health, safety and wellbeing. The existing contract is due for re-procurement, and the Authority wishes to engage the market early to understand current capabilities, new ideas, and potential models of delivery.
The existing arrangements are due to be re‑procured, and the Authority therefore wishes to appoint a supplier/s through a competitive procurement process to deliver a comparable or enhanced service, while continuing to offer two distinct levels of cover. The procurement aims to ensure continuity of provision, quality of service, and value for money over the life of the contract.
The Authority intends to procure a supplier to deliver comprehensive annual health checks at two levels of provision, as a minimum the following checks would be provided:
Standard Annual Health Assessment (All Staff):
- Pre-assessment lifestyle and wellbeing questionnaires
- Biometric and body composition analysis
- Blood pressure measurements
- Cardiovascular health assessment including ABPI and heart rhythm screening
- Respiratory/lung function testing
- Diabetes risk and metabolic blood testing
- Full lipid profile
- Haematology profile
- Liver and kidney function testing
- Musculoskeletal health assessment
- Cancer risk screening (age/gender dependent)
- Urine analysis and additional diagnostic markers
- Wellbeing advice and mental health indicators
- Access to GP interpretation and aftercare
- Self-managed booking system
- Nationwide provision within reasonable travel distance
Enhanced Health Assessment (Selected Roles):
- Extended consultation with a doctor (up to one hour)
- Structured mental health assessment
- Sleep assessment
- Mobility and flexibility assessment
- Lifestyle, metabolic and energy requirements review
- 12 months of personalised health coaching
- 24/7 clinical advice line
- Targeted cancer screening based on risk

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners were registered in the region where that award was delivered.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards have an award date within 54 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.
Past bids do not predict this tender.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
