## Summary

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for a National Framework Agreement for the provision of Smart Buildings Solutions using the Internet of Things (IoT). This agreement falls under the industry category of energy-management services, specifically targeted at non-domestic properties within the UK. The procurement method used was an open procedure, and the tender has been successfully awarded with active suppliers, ensuring continuity of intelligent building management solutions that monitor energy usage, occupancy, and asset visibility.

This opportunity is particularly well-suited for firms offering innovative energy management and IoT solutions, as well as services related to installing sensory networks and cloud-based data analytics systems. Businesses that specialise in modular components for building management, energy efficiency consultancy, or advanced technology integration will find this framework appealing, given the evolving demand in the public sector to enhance operational efficiencies in light of financial pressures.

## Notice

The Smart Buildings Solutions using the Internet of Things framework agreement will provide authorities with the means to enable intelligent commercial buildings. Solutions primarily involve the installation of a sensory network that is connected via wireless internet to cloud based data analytics, which enables monitoring and control of energy usage, building occupancy and visibility of assets. The solution can be composed of several modular components which all work simultaneously to create a platform for the management of buildings, and in turn driving efficiencies across estates. Note: This framework agreement is not concerned with domestic properties.
