Summary: Central Bedfordshire Council intends to procure lone worker protection devices and associated alarm-monitoring services. The service will support council employees who work alone in the field and may face personal safety risks. The requirement falls within the services category and covers both equipment and monitoring provision. The planned scope is represented by a single lot. The work is associated with the Council’s lone-worker safety arrangements, so relevant suppliers are likely to provide solutions combining personal safety technology with a monitoring or response function. Businesses offering devices, platforms, communications, monitoring, incident escalation or related support may find the requirement relevant when the procurement progresses to the market.
