This procurement is classified under business and management consultancy services and falls under the open procedure method. The tendering period concluded on 3rd April 2017, and the contract is expected to run from 1st May 2017 to 1st May 2018, with possibilities for extension. This opportunity involves a contract value of £40,000, situated in the North West region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in sales and marketing, particularly those with experience in the assistive technology sector. Companies that can demonstrate a capacity to increase sales through innovative marketing strategies or have a strong background in business development consultancy services would be well-suited to compete. The flexible financial remuneration model allows for various proposals, making it an attractive opportunity for small and medium enterprises looking to expand their portfolios in this niche market. ## Notice Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council intends to procure services to generate sales of an assistive technology product which has been developed by the Council for widescale use as either a supportive assistive technology device or a lone worker device. The necessary accreditations are in place to meet the requirements of both markets. The Council also has a portfolio of additional assistive technology products and services which it is envisaged will benefit from the increased exposure created by the sales activity relating to the 'Arc Angel' product. Details of the Arc Angel product, and the range of additional products and services offered can be found at www.seftonarc.com The period of contract is for an initial period of twelve months with an opportunity to extend for two further periods of one year. During this time it is expected that the service supplier will work with Sefton Arc to deliver a substantial increase in direct sales of the Arc Angel product. The Council is not committed to any maximum or minimum expenditure through this agreement, and does not commit to maintaining current, or any level of spending. It is expected that a potential supplier will provide a price or cost for which he/she will provide the necessary services to the Council over a twelve month period. This may include a 'fixed' monthly fee and also a cost per Arc Angel unit sold. All financial models and proposals will be considered, but the underlying theme to run through each or any type of financial remuneration model must be the increase in sales of the Arc Angel unit. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e987c4b5-2cf1-499b-9d26-5f4be41073c7 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | 3 Apr 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 13 Apr 2017 | | Contract period | 30 Apr 2017 - 1 May 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £64,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SEFTON COUNCIL | | Locality | BOOTLE | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L20 3UU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD73 Sefton | | Local authority | Sefton | | Electoral ward | Linacre | | Westminster constituency | Bootle | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | YOUR SALES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79410000 - Business and management consultancy services - 79411100 - Business development consultancy services ## Release History - 15 May 2018 at 07:28 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e987c4b5-2cf1-499b-9d26-5f4be41073c7 - 20 Mar 2017 at 11:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e987c4b5-2cf1-499b-9d26-5f4be41073c7 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e987c4b5-2cf1-499b-9d26-5f4be41073c7 20th March 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.sefton.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
