Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council is undertaking the planning stage of a procurement process titled "PME - Drowning Detection System / Assistive Lifeguard Technology," seeking potential suppliers for leisure centres across the United Kingdom, specifically in the region UKE12. This procurement falls under the 'Software package and information systems' industry category and involves goods. The current phase is a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME), not an actual tender, and aims to gather information from suppliers by 16 May 2025. Businesses are invited to submit 'Request for Information' questionnaires by this revised deadline. A future notice about the tender could be expected around 1 September 2025. The potential contracting period, following the evaluation of PME outcomes, may span from February 2026 to January 2030.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in software and technology solutions, particularly those specialising in safety systems for public venues such as leisure centres. Companies with innovative drowning detection and assistive lifeguard technologies are encouraged to participate, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that could benefit from public sector contracts. Engaging with East Riding of Yorkshire Council in this PME could position businesses to influence future specifications and strategic developments that align with their product offerings, thus fostering business growth and expanded market presence.
