Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council procured an adult domiciliary care and homecare monitoring service. The requirement is for a home monitoring system using sensors and artificial intelligence to track people’s daily routines, identify unusual activity and alert carers to potential problems. This is a technology-enabled health and social care service rather than conventional care staffing or equipment supply alone. The procurement falls within health and social work services. It would suit providers of monitored living, care technology, remote health monitoring or assistive technology, particularly those able to combine reliable sensors, data analysis and alerts with practical support for carers and adult social care teams.

The procurement reached the awarded and complete stage. It used a limited procedure with a direct award without prior publication of a competition, through the CCS G-Cloud 14 RM1557.14 Framework Agreement. Intelligent Lilli Limited was awarded the contract, with one bid recorded, from an SME. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026 and is valued at up to £66,300. The stated contract period is 27 July 2026 to 26 July 2027, with a further one-year extension option. The award was evaluated on price. The single lot is marked cancelled in the procurement record, although the award and contract are recorded as active; this should be checked when interpreting the outcome.

This outcome demonstrates a defined requirement for technology that can monitor adults’ routines in the home, detect deviations and prompt carers to investigate potential problems. A credible future competitor would need a dependable sensor-based monitoring platform, artificial-intelligence or rules-based analysis capable of identifying unusual activity, and alerting that carers can use in practice. The service should be suitable for adult domiciliary care and support day-to-day safeguarding or welfare checks without relying solely on face-to-face visits. Suppliers with experience delivering care technology to councils or care providers, integrating monitoring into existing care processes, and supporting frontline users would be well placed. The procurement also shows that a smaller specialist technology supplier can meet this type of council requirement through a public-sector cloud framework.
