Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council has awarded a contract titled "Sentinel Plus 24-Hour Alarm Monitoring Support" under the industry category of alarm-monitoring services (CPV code 79711000). The procurement process followed a limited, negotiated procedure without prior publication, targeting the North East region of the United Kingdom. The tender period ended on 31st July 2024, with the contract running from 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2026. The award, valued at £43,000, was granted to Monitor Computer Systems, reflecting the unique requirement for their proprietary system software support. Key contact for the buying organisation is Janine Lancaster (janine.lancaster@newcastle.gov.uk).

This tender presents specific growth opportunities for businesses specialised in alarm monitoring systems, especially for those that can provide unique or proprietary support services. Small to medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises may not find this opportunity as accessible due to the specialised nature of the software involved. However, businesses with proven capabilities in bespoke alarm system monitoring and maintenance stand to benefit significantly from engaging with similar municipal contracts in the future.
