Summary of the contracting process

Trust Housing Association Ltd bought digital telecare equipment for delivery in Scotland. The purchase covers technology-enabled care equipment used to support telecare services, rather than construction, consultancy or general ICT. The buyer is a housing association based in Edinburgh and also acts as a central purchasing body. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and is associated with CPV 42967100, covering digital telecare equipment. The awarded supplier, TeleAlarm Europe GmbH, is an SME. The buyer’s housing and community amenities role indicates that the equipment supports its housing-related care and support services. Businesses supplying digital telecare devices and associated technology-enabled care equipment are the closest commercial fit, particularly those able to supply housing providers or public-sector care services in Scotland.

The procurement has been awarded and the resulting contract is active. Trust Housing Association Ltd used a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition, making a direct call-off from the Scotland Excel Supply and Delivery of Technology Enabled Care Goods Framework. The award went to TeleAlarm Europe GmbH for the single lot. The contract value is £726,500. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026. One bid was recorded, submitted electronically by an SME; the recorded bid statistics also identify it as a non-EU foreign bid. The procurement was treated as outside the scope of the applicable directive and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No award cancellation or contract termination is recorded.

This award confirms a substantial requirement for digital telecare equipment from Trust Housing Association Ltd and shows that the buyer can meet its needs through a recognised Scotland Excel technology-enabled care framework. A credible future supplier would therefore need a proven portfolio of digital telecare equipment and the operational capacity to supply a housing association’s technology-enabled care requirements at scale. Framework participation or a route to an equivalent compliant public-sector purchasing arrangement would be commercially important, as this purchase was made by direct call-off rather than through a new open competition. Suppliers should also be able to handle electronic tendering and demonstrate that their equipment is suitable for deployment in housing and care settings across Scotland. The awarded supplier’s SME status indicates that specialist smaller technology providers can compete in this market.
