This process falls under the services category, specifically classified as inventory management software development services. The deadline for tender submissions is set for 8th September 2021, with an expected contract duration of 1080 days, inclusive of potential 12-month renewal periods. The procurement is being executed through an open procedure, allowing broad participation from suppliers within the UK. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in cloud-based software solutions, asset management systems, and related hardware provision, such as barcode scanners and printers. Companies that can demonstrate ready-to-deploy solutions, alongside effective support and maintenance capabilities, will be exceptionally well-suited to compete. The successful bidder will also need to maintain high standards for business continuity and disaster recovery, thus attracting firms with robust operational capabilities in the health and social care sectors. ## Notice .Gloucestershire County Council (The Council)The Council is looking to procure a Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) cloud based asset management database solution and associated barcode scanners and printers to meet the combined requirements of health and social care teams across a number of organisations within Gloucestershire who access equipment and technology services through the Section 75 pooled budget arrangement. A pooled budget is a partnership arrangement whereby NHS organisations and local authorities contribute an agreed level of resource into a single pot (the 'pooled budget') that is then used to commission or deliver health and social care services. For the avoidance of doubt we are not procuring a development contract i.e. bidders must have an existing solution which meets our requirement at the time of bidding. We wish to complete a successful procurement process that attracts competition in order to achieve value for money for the Council ### Lot Information Lot 1 This is a service and hardware procurement.
