Summary of the contracting process

Horsham District Council appointed a Technology Enabled Lives provider to support people through technology-enabled living services in Horsham, West Sussex. The requirement is classified as repair and maintenance services for medical equipment (CPV 50421000), with the procurement categorised as goods. The appointed provider is expected to supply and maintain the relevant technology and equipment used to deliver the service. The contracting route sits within the Northern Housing Consortium’s Technology Enabled Lives framework, with the Northern Housing Consortium acting as the buying organisation for this framework call-off. The named delivery location is Horsham, identified by postcode RH12 2GB. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. It used a selective call-off from the Northern Housing Consortium’s Technology Enabled Lives framework. Mindme, legally identified as Minder Ltd t/a Mindme, was awarded the contract on 14 July 2026 for £40,000.01 including the stated GBP currency. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027, with the appointment described as one year and an option to extend through three separate additional one-year periods. The tender submission deadline was 14 July 2026. The available information identifies the framework call-off route but does not set out separate quality, price or other evaluation weightings. The award is active, and the contract covers the single stated requirement for Horsham District Council.

This award indicates demand from Horsham District Council for suppliers able to provide Technology Enabled Lives services alongside the supply, servicing and repair of medical equipment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in technology-enabled care or independent living, dependable maintenance support and the operational capacity to keep equipment working for service users. Experience of delivering similar services to a public-sector housing or local-authority environment would help demonstrate understanding of user support, service continuity and contract management. Suppliers should also be able to work through the Northern Housing Consortium’s Technology Enabled Lives framework route, or build the relevant framework access and delivery partnerships. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so smaller specialist providers may be well placed to compete when this requirement returns.
