## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council has awarded a contract for the supply of Aids for Daily Living equipment, aimed at helping individuals maintain independence at home. The procurement process is classified within the goods category and utilised an open procedure, with the contract signed on 18 August 2021. The contract values £798,000 and will cover Edinburgh and the Lothians. This short-term call-off contract will run for four months, from 1 February 2022 to 31 May 2022. The Council's address is Waverley Court, 4 East Market Street, Edinburgh, EH8 8BG, and interested parties can contact Callum Ewan at callum.ewan@edinburgh.gov.uk for further information.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses that specialise in the supply of medical and daily living equipment, particularly those offering innovative solutions that promote independence for the elderly or disabled. Companies with expertise in social care equipment, including grab rails, hoists, and therapeutic seating, would be well-positioned to compete. The awarding of this contract under the YPO 766 framework indicates a preference for suppliers who can align with governmental initiatives to enhance community wellbeing and provide essential services in care homes, public buildings, and individual residences.
