Summary of the contracting process

The Knowsley Council is currently in the planning stage of a market engagement process aimed at improving the range of Assistive Technology (AT) equipment available to its service users. This initiative is set to take place in the North West of England, and the council is primarily looking for expressions of interest. The engagement period will conclude on 23 February 2018, with a closing date for expressions to show interest on 13 April 2017. Potential suppliers are encouraged to understand the challenges facing local authority social care services as they progress with this initiative.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, assistive technologies, and health and social work solutions to engage with the council. Companies that can provide equipment, market knowledge, or expertise in social care technology are particularly well-suited to compete. By participating in this market engagement exercise, interested businesses can potentially contribute to a future full procurement opportunity, thereby expanding their market reach within the local government sector.
