This contract, signed on 11 December 2024, involves the purchase and maintenance of tele-care technology units intended for service users with limited experience with smartphones, computers, and tablets. The procurement process followed a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication, justified by Regulation 33 (1) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 due to the absence of competition for technical reasons, and was approved on 10 December 2024. The contract was awarded to Abilia Ltd for a period running from 11 December 2024 to 31 March 2025, with a contract value of £162,900.

Additionally, firms with expertise in supporting users with minimal experience in digital devices could greatly benefit from this procurement. The process highlights the importance of understanding specific regulatory conditions that allow for direct awards and the necessity of providing unique technical solutions.
