Description

[Administrative correction and re-issue of assessment summaries This Contract Award Notice replaces and supersedes the notices originally published under identifiers 2025/S 000-068119 (11:23 a.m., 24 October 2025) and 2025/S 000-068105 (11:10 a.m., 24 October 2025). Following an informal supplier challenge during the initial standstill period, the Council reviewed the Social Value evaluation for Lot 3 with its external evaluator, the Social Value Portal (SVP). That review identified a minor administrative error within SVP's internal quality-control process. The issue has now been corrected, and the Council has re-issued updated Assessment Summaries to all bidders to ensure transparency and equal treatment. This notice is therefore being republished to reflect the corrected evaluation record. In accordance with sections 50 and 51 of the Procurement Act 2023, publication of this notice commences a new mandatory standstill period of eight (8) working days, beginning with the date of publication. The Council will not enter into any contract before the end of that period.] North Hertfordshire District Council requires high quality assistive technology solutions to support people to establish, maintain or regain independence both in and away from their home setting, increasing successful early supported discharges from hospital, supporting people to maintain personal safety, to build confidence and to improve their physical and mental wellbeing. North Hertfordshire District Council's Herts Careline service works in partnership with Hertfordshire County Council to supply, maintain and monitors alarms for over 9000 service users across Hertfordshire. Of these users, approximately 5000 sites have assistive technology to support users with complex needs. Additionally, 500 users utilise our away service, taking technology out of the home with them in Hertfordshire and beyond. On average, our team of technicians complete 150 new installations each month. Herts Careline provides plug and play alarm kits to twenty (20) hospitals and professional services to support early discharge in Hertfordshire. The Council intends to procure a multi-supplier Framework Agreement divided into three Lots. The Lots are defined as follows: Lot 1: Solutions for Assistive Technologies Service at Home and Hospital Discharge Lot 2: Solutions for Assistive Technologies Service Away from Home Lot 3: Solutions for Assistive Technologies for Users with Complex Needs
