Summary of the contracting process

North Ayrshire Council is in the planning stage for the procurement of a Telecare Call Monitoring and Alarm Receiving Centre. This service is essential for maintaining a call handling system that is compatible with alarm equipment and Telecare peripherals in the North Ayrshire Council area, including the islands of Arran and Cumbrae. The procurement process began on 8th November 2017, with a future notice scheduled for 4th December 2017. The expected service period will last from 1st September 2018 to 31st August 2019, catering to approximately 4,200 service users who require 24/7 support, which includes public and bank holidays.

This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in Telecare services or related technologies. Providers capable of delivering high-quality, responsive call handling systems are particularly well-suited, given the anticipated increase in demand for Telecare services. The successful provider will not only contribute to key health and social care initiatives but also align with the Scottish Government’s objectives to promote independence for older individuals and those with care needs. Companies should consider this tender as a strategic avenue to enhance their market presence in the health and social care sectors.
