UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust for the provision of maintenance and servicing of panic alarm systems across 22 locations, predominantly community-based units, in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom. The process has reached the award stage, with the latest contract awarded on 16th March 2026, following a non-competitive direct method due to the below-threshold criteria. The procurement is categorised under alarm-monitoring services, with the contract expected to span from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2029. This contract includes the flexibility to amend service locations throughout its duration, contingent on an ongoing estates review within the Trust.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in security system management and maintenance, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as indicated by the suitability criteria in previous tenders. With the contract awarded to Pinpoint Ltd, an SME, businesses focusing on service delivery could see ample growth opportunities through engagement with central government public authorities like the Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. Establishing long-term professional relationships with such institutions can lead to repeat business and potential expansion within the alarm-monitoring sector, thereby solidifying market presence and expertise.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Provision of Maintenance and Servicing of Panic Alarm Systems

Notice Description

The Pinpoint system is a multifaceted security system which uses personnel transmitters, allowing staff protection to discreetly activate calls for Assistance and Emergency when needed. The system integrates with other systems to allow response staff to identify the type and source of the call. This system is used within 22 locations within the Trust, mostly in community based units, on a closed protocol system that has been in place for a number of years. To change this system would cause a significant amount of disruption to staff and patients of Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. Therefore, the best course of action to ensure compliance and ensure continued maintenance of these systems would be to publish this notice.
