## Summary

The procurement process for the Lone Worker Device involves National Highways, a buyer based in Birmingham, England. The tender falls under the industry category of site-safety equipment and is currently in the planning stage. The engagement end date is set for 2nd August 2024.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses that provide technology solutions for lone worker safety. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in health and safety equipment are well-suited to compete. Businesses operating in regions across the United Kingdom, including North East, North West, and London, can benefit from participating in this procurement process.

## Notice

There is a need for technology to support the health and safety requirements for lone working. The lone worker proposal directly aligns with National Highways "Home, Safe and Well", which ensures no one should be harmed travelling or working on the strategic road network. There must be the ability to monitor lone workers welfare and arrangements in place to ensure contact can be made in emergencies. Inspectors often leave their vehicles to walk considerable distances, sometimes out of sight of the road, and navigate up and down verges to access parts of the network. Managers conduct individual risk assessments with staff to determine their suitability for working alone, ensuring there are not relevant medical issues, and staff routinely receive NH safety critical medical examinations. Therefore National Highways is conducting Market Engagement to ascertain the market offering.
