Health Monitoring Services for Fire and Emergency New Zealand Personnel

This RFP relates to the FENZ health monitoring programme which is a voluntary annual health check offered to all ~14,000 FENZ personnel throughout New Zealand. The services cover the entire country, which is made up of five regions, with a head office based in Wellington, and regional offices in Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, Tauranga, and Auckland.

FENZ has paid (career) and volunteer firefighters, as well as support staff, and office-based staff. Each of these groups, especially our volunteers, has different day, time, and seasonality availabilities which the Successful Respondent(s) must be able to accommodate to perform the health monitoring services.

Respondents may bid to supply these services as a nationwide service or within a region, or multiple regions.

Upon evaluating the responses, FENZ will consider what will give FENZ the best services and the best public value-for-money, and FENZ in its absolute discretion can appoint one of the Respondents that has responded to provide a nationwide service to provide the nationwide service, or FENZ can appoint by region. If FENZ chooses to appoint by region, you may or may not be appointed to every region that you bid for.

The key outcome of this RFP is to improve the health and well-being of our personnel by making sure that our people have access to regular monitoring so that interventions can be provided before people become very ill, ultimately resulting in a workforce that is healthier, both mentally and physically.
