This procurement aims to consolidate services currently provided by various monitoring providers for sheltered housing and community alarm customers, with an estimated contract go-live date of June 2018. Interested parties were invited to participate in a Preliminary Market Consultation, which has now closed, with the engagement deadline having been set for September 4, 2017. The service will involve managing approximately 844 sheltered properties in Nottingham and 697 properties in Tameside, classified under CPV code 79711000 for alarm-monitoring services. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in alarm monitoring services, particularly those capable of managing comprehensive service agreements across multiple locations. Companies offering integrated solutions and possessing experience with similar contracts will be well-suited to compete for this tender. Businesses looking to expand their footprint in the public sector, especially in the North West and East Midlands regions of the UK, should consider engaging with the full scope of the requirements outlined in the preliminary market consultation brief. ## Notice New Charter is seeking to procure a new group wide Alarm Monitoring Service across two key locations: Tameside and Nottingham.
