Summary of the contracting process

Dover District Council has awarded a contract for Lone Worker Devices/Technology, classified under software package and information systems (CPV code 48000000). The procurement, which was conducted using a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement, falls under the services category. It covers the delivery in the South East region of the United Kingdom and spans from 31 March 2025 to 30 March 2028. The tender period ended on 1 March 2025, with the award made on 17 March 2025 and published on 8 April 2025. The contract holds a value of £18,420 GBP.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in the provision of innovative safety technology for lone workers, particularly those focused on software solutions and information systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete in this procurement environment, but participation from larger firms like Orbis Protect Ltd, the winning supplier, is also common. Businesses equipped to deliver services within the specified region and timeframe, while meeting the Council's safety and technological standards, will find this contract particularly lucrative.
