Summary of the contracting process

Connexus Homes Limited, a housing association based in Craven Arms, United Kingdom, recently completed a procurement process for Telecare Equipment and Associated Services. This procurement was conducted as part of the digital switchover initiative, seeking a digital solution to update the existing scheme alarm systems across 30 schemes in Herefordshire and Shropshire. The procurement process followed an open procedure under the legal framework of Procurement for Housing Technologies for Independent Living: Telecare / Telehealth Framework. The project, classified under telecommunications equipment and supplies, aimed at ensuring uninterrupted service for vulnerable adults post-analogue switchover, with the contract awarded on 15th June 2026 to Legrand Electric Limited. The contract, effective immediately, entails a total value of GBP 1,900,000.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in telecommunications equipment and digital infrastructure. As the procurement emphasised high standards in quality and demonstration alongside competitive pricing, companies with expertise in wireless telecommunications systems and communications infrastructure would find this bid lucrative. Businesses located in the regions of Shropshire and Herefordshire, or those with the capability to operate within these areas, are ideally positioned to contribute and benefit from further opportunities in similar projects, particularly if they can offer innovative solutions compatible with modern digital standards. The project underscores the importance of maintaining connectivity and safety for community housing schemes, leaving room for continuous engagement in future tenders within this sector.
