This specification is for Lot 1. The provision of Display Screen Equipment (DSE) workstation assessments and the supply, delivery and fitting of ergonomic operator chairs and related equipment for Manchester City Council employees. The service supports DSE users who, following a DSE self-assessment, need support with workstation setup, posture or equipment, where specialist medical input is not required. The Council is seeking to maximise opportunities for sustainable delivery, including the reuse and refurbishment of ergonomic equipment where appropriate, in support of its carbon reduction and value for money objectives. The service must reflect Manchester City Council's Our Manchester Values by supporting a responsive, inclusive and person-centred approach to workstation assessment and equipment provision. This includes treating employees with dignity and respect, working collaboratively with managers and Council officers, and helping staff access practical support that enables safe, comfortable and sustainable working. And This specification sets out the requirements for Lot 2 - the provision of workplace coaching, disability-related training, and assistive technology training for Manchester City Council employees.
The service supports employees who, due to disability, menopause, health condition, sensory impairments or neurotype experience barriers in the workplace and would benefit from structured support to work effectively in their role.
The service will include:
Workplace coaching
Disability-related training for individuals
Team-based disability awareness
Assistive technology training
The service focuses on providing practical, work-based support and is not responsible for determining or recommending workplace adjustments.
The Council is seeking a flexible, high-quality service that can meet the needs of a diverse workforce and varied service areas. The service must reflect Manchester City Council's Our Manchester Values throughout the life of the contract. For this service, this means delivering coaching and training in a way that supports trust, dignity and accessibility; works constructively with employees, managers and Council officers; and helps remove workplace barriers through practical, role-relevant support.
