Methodology & coverage notes (1 active published awards)
Coverage: 1 active published awards; 0 bid reports (which may be per lot); 1 valued awards. Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Every figure carries an evidence level: Robust (5+ observations), Moderate (3–4), Indicative (1–2). Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

| Preliminary market engagement (PME) rationale | Whilst no preliminary market engagement has been carried out, an initial tender process was conducted under Lot 2 of the NHS Commercial Solutions Framework for Occupational Health, Employment Assistance Programmes and Eye Care. In May 2026, that tender process was terminated in favour of tendering via PA23 Open Procedure. The Specification has been updated since that framework tender process. |
