Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance of its nurse call and staff attack systems. The work is the servicing and upkeep of equipment used to summon clinical assistance and alert staff to attacks, supporting safe operation in the Trust’s healthcare settings. Delivery is associated with Worthing, including the BN11 1HS location, with the wider location described as England. This is a specialist maintenance service rather than a purchase of new equipment. The Trust is the buyer, and the requirement was arranged through its QTS Estates Maintenance Service Framework. The systems’ role in patient care and staff safety makes reliable maintenance central to the service: suppliers need to understand the equipment and the operational demands of healthcare environments.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Edison Telecom Limited. The award was made on 15 October 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029. The awarded value is £416,667, matching the stated estimated procurement value. This was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open competition. The submission deadline was 5 October 2026 at noon. The procurement is classified as a service contract, and the published award identifies one supplier. The process does not set out specific evaluation criteria, lots or supplier eligibility conditions beyond indicating that the requirement was called off from the framework.

For suppliers who did not win, this award is evidence that Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust buys ongoing maintenance for nurse call and staff attack systems through its estates maintenance framework. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need the technical capability to maintain both types of system, diagnose faults and keep equipment dependable in healthcare settings where failures can affect patient assistance and staff safety. The incumbent, Edison Telecom Limited, is identified as a small and medium-sized enterprise, demonstrating that a specialist SME was selected for this contract. The Trust’s use of a framework call-off indicates that relevant framework access and the ability to compete within that route matter alongside service capability. Suppliers should be prepared to support a sustained maintenance service across the Trust’s relevant locations.
