Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is currently involved in the procurement process for a contract titled "Staff Security & Attack Alarms," aimed at providing alarm-monitoring services under the category of services. This procurement stage has reached completion, with the contract being awarded on November 30, 2021, for an initial period of four years, with the possibility of a one-year extension. The contract value is £120,449.91 and is justified by the need to maintain an existing, integrated safety system rather than disrupt services affecting staff and patients at multiple hospital campuses in Glasgow.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in alarm-monitoring and related security services, particularly those that can deliver integrated safety solutions without causing disruption. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in similar systems, especially those familiar with working in hospital environments, will find this tender suitable for competitive bidding. The successful supplier, King Communications and Security Ltd, highlights the potential for collaborations in future contracts, as the continued maintenance and updates to such systems are crucial for the health sector.
