## Summary

The Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the maintenance and support of its Staff Attack, Nurse Call, and Bed Alarm systems under the contract titled "SP2025/26-25 - Maintenance of Staff Attack, Nurse Call, and Bed Alarm Systems". This contract has been awarded to Edison Telecom Limited and covers services in the IT and alarm-monitoring category. Located in Worthing, the buying organisation is a public authority within the central government of the UK. The contract was signed on 1st April 2026 and runs until 31st March 2028. The procurement method used was direct, below the threshold, without competition, indicating a direct award to the supplier due to the proprietary nature of Edison Telecom's existing systems.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services and alarm-monitoring systems, particularly those capable of supporting proprietary systems that ensure staff safety. Large businesses with expertise in maintaining closed protocol systems, similar to those of Edison Telecom, could benefit from such opportunities by positioning themselves as reliable partners for similar future procurements. The focus on maintaining critical safety systems also highlights the importance of delivering high-quality, responsive services, which can be a distinguishing factor for businesses seeking to secure contracts in the healthcare sector.

## Notice

This waiver seeks approval to award a 24-month contract to Edison Telecom Ltd for the maintenance and support of SPFT's Staff Attack, Nurse Call, and Bed Alarm systems. Key rationale: 1. Existing Installation via Kier: Edison Telecom have been awarded the installation contract for Staff Attack and Nurse Call systems at Combe Valley Hospital through Kier. They are responsible for ongoing maintenance during the warranty period, ensuring continuity and compliance with warranty obligations. 2. Proprietary Closed Protocol System: Edison has developed a plug-and-play, closed protocol Staff Attack system, currently deployed in several smaller outpatient sites. This system enhances staff safety by providing rapid alarm activation and reliable connectivity but is proprietary and requires Edison's technical expertise for maintenance and fault resolution. 3. Continuity of Service and Safety: Transferring maintenance to another supplier coul
