Description

The University of Surrey (‘the University’) is pleased to invite suitably qualified organisations to apply to join this Dynamic Purchasing System for the provision of Occupational Health (‘OH’) Physicians in accordance Regulation 34 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The Robens Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (the Robens) is a wholly owned enterprise unit of the University of Surrey. As such it is a small to medium sized OH service provider to a number of customer organisations, mainly in London and the South East of England. Many of Robens customers require a regular OH Adviser input and, to supplement their skills, the Occupational Physician may work across several customer organisations. The Robens customer portfolio is largely Higher Education Institutions with local authority, public sector and healthcare also represented. The Robens also runs a very successful travel health clinic at its Guildford site for business and leisure travellers. As an Enterprise Unit, Robens is actively seeking opportunities to expand its portfolio of clients both in terms of geographical location and services required, and therefore the purpose of this Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is to; — Establish a list of suitably qualified professional OH practitioners who will be able to support Robens in achieving its objective, and — To encourage locally based SME's, as well as larger organisations, to work with Robens to deliver services to their Clients. The University of Surrey is a charitable body, registered in England, with registration number X3967. This tender has been issued by the University in accordance with Regulation 34 (Dynamic Purchasing Systems — ‘DPS’) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This DPS will run continuously from the award date for a minimum of 6 (six) years, when it will be reviewed to assess whether it is still relevant to the needs of the University. Where the DPS is considered relevant, it will continue in force, subject to 2 year reviews, for a total period of 10 (ten) years. Where the DPS requires substantial change or amendment, a new contract notice will be issued and the DPS will be refreshed. In any event the DPS will expire after a period of 10 (ten) years from the date of award.
