Summary of the contracting process

Cornwall Council has undertaken a direct award procurement process for the provision of lone worker devices and associated 24/7 call monitoring services. The procurement falls under the industry category of computer equipment and supplies, with delivery and operations set to occur within the UKK30 region, United Kingdom. Key dates in this process include the contract signing on 29 July 2025, the start date of 30 July 2025, and the end date of 9 July 2028. Cornwall Council is the buying organisation, with Corserv Care established as the supplier for this contract, valued at £210,000 excluding VAT. The process reflects the council's strategic decision to leverage an in-house company via a direct award method, deemed suitable for technical reasons by the council.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in safety technology and remote monitoring solutions, particularly those already operating in the Southwest region of the UK. With the contract actively being delivered and a substantial gross amount of £252,000, companies that can offer innovative enhancements or supplementary services may find potential for future collaborative growth. Large-scale suppliers, such as Corserv Care, with expertise in technological goods, are ideally positioned to meet the outlined operational and technical demands, potentially catalysing further partnerships with similar public authorities.
