Summary of the contracting process

The Council for the City of Manchester has appointed a provider for its Technology Enabled Lives service. The requirement is classified as repair and maintenance of medical equipment (CPV 50421000), within the goods category. The service is associated with the Council’s work in Manchester; the recorded delivery postcode is M60 2LA. The appointment was made through the Northern Housing Consortium’s Technology Enabled Lives framework, with the Consortium acting as the buyer in this process. Technology Enabled Lives is the stated purpose of the appointment; the procurement does not describe specific equipment, service tasks or delivery arrangements beyond this.

The procurement is complete and awarded. Appello Smart Living Solutions Ltd was selected through a selective call-off from the Northern Housing Consortium framework. The award was made on 17 September 2026, following a submission deadline of 17 September 2026. The awarded value is £111,000. The contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029, a three-year appointment. One award is recorded. The opportunity was marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award information identifies the framework route, but gives no separate scoring breakdown or detailed evaluation criteria.

For suppliers tracking future Technology Enabled Lives requirements from Manchester City Council, this award shows demand for a framework-based appointment of a provider to deliver the service, with medical-equipment repair and maintenance as its recorded classification. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate capability relevant to this Technology Enabled Lives provision and the ability to deliver the associated service for the Council. The SME suitability designation indicates that businesses of this size were considered suitable to participate, and the successful supplier is itself recorded as an SME. This is evidence of a requirement handled through the Northern Housing Consortium framework; suppliers would therefore need relevant access to, or eligibility under, the applicable framework route as well as service capability.
