## Summary

The public procurement process involves South Lanarkshire Council, which is located in Hamilton, UK, and is seeking to procure the supply and delivery of Analogue Dispersed Alarm Units. This procurement falls under the goods category and was conducted through a restricted procedure, indicating it was a selective tendering process. The award for this contract was signed on 7th May 2021, with a total contract value of £126,500. This initiative is part of the Scotland Excel Technology Enabled Care Framework, aimed at enhancing care for vulnerable citizens in alignment with Scotland’s Digital Health and Care Strategy.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in telecare and assistive technology, particularly those capable of delivering analogue alarm systems. Companies with expertise in digital solutions, especially those transitioning from traditional telecommunication systems to digital technologies, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts. With the ongoing shift to a digital-first approach in care services, there is potential for substantial growth within this sector, especially for suppliers who can demonstrate quality and cost-effectiveness.

## Notice

The use of digital technology, including telehealth and telecare, to transform and enhance care for citizens is recognised in the Scottish Government's technology enabled care (TEC) programme, Scotland's Digital Health and Care Strategy, and South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Partnership (SLHSCP) Strategic Commissioning Plan 2019-22. Telecare and assistive technology peripherals are dispersed alarms and remote monitoring equipment used to enable our most vulnerable citizens to live as safely and independently as possible at home for longer. The telecare alarms and assistive technology peripherals are installed in service users' homes and linked to SLC alarm receiving centre. Telecommunication companies are moving to digital technology known as 'voice over internet protocol' (VOIP) which can support both broadband and telephone services, the public switched telephone network (PSTN) will be switched off. . In the meantime, it is imperative that SLHSCP continue to provide analogue telecare alarms to our most vulnerable citizens to ensure their safety and wellbeing within their home. The purchase of the analogue alarms is to cover the Council until the digital switchover.
