This procurement process, classified under the "Software package and information systems" industry category, included the consolidation of existing contracts for monitoring equipment used to protect employees from health risks associated with vibration exposure. The awarded contract was concluded on 1st February 2026, with Reactec Limited, a large supplier based in Glasgow, successfully securing the three-year contract with an option for two one-year extensions. The procurement took place through an open competition below the threshold, showcasing proactive regulatory compliance by Leicester City Council, headquartered in Leicester, UKF21 region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in supplying monitoring equipment, software development, and analytical solutions. Firms that can offer integrated solutions including devices and analytical software, or those that can adapt existing systems to suit current hardware, would be ideally positioned to capitalise on similar contracts. Such opportunities are especially lucrative for companies with large-scale operations, as evidenced by the success of Reactec Limited. Businesses involved in supporting infrastructure to ongoing safety and compliance across various industries can also find growth potential. This procurement highlights the market demand for innovative safety monitoring technologies and showcases the competitive nature of public procurement, providing valuable exposure and business development potential for service providers in this field.

## Notice

Regular exposure to hand-arm vibration from using hand-held power tools or operating machinery can cause a range of conditions known as Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) which includes vibration white finger and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). Under the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, Leicester City Council must assess and identify measures to eliminate or reduce risks from exposure to hand-arm vibration so that we can protect our employees from risks to their health. The Council currently has 100 HAV devices across three service areas. Each of the areas have a separate subscription. The Housing team also have 1 device used to monitor dust. The current solution will be unsupported from 31st December 2025, therefore any new solution must go live by the 1st January 2026. The Council would like to consolidate the contracts and explore providers who can offer devices, analytical software and if possible work with the existing devices.
