UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Northamptonshire Council issued a contract titled 'NNC Sheltered Housing Temporary Telecare Maintenance, Kettering', aimed at updating analogue Sheltered Housing alarms to digital systems. The contract, awarded on 5th June 2026, has a gross value of £41,416 and will run from 14th July 2026 to 30th September 2026. The procurement falls under the 'services' category and was executed using a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition. The project takes place in the United Kingdom, specifically in Kettering, and it ensures continuity of maintenance for existing analogue devices during the digital switchover process.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, especially those involved in maintenance services, to engage in the telecommunications and maintenance sectors. The contract was awarded to Tunstall Healthcare (UK) Limited, a large-scale supplier known for its expertise in such domains. While the method of procurement did not include open competition, similar opportunities can provide valuable experience and exposure, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to offer specialised repair and maintenance services in the public sector. The nature of the project aligns with businesses skilled in managing technology transitions in healthcare settings.
