Total Quantity or Scope

In Sutton we want to find the best and most effective ways to support people to live well independently and prevent the need for more intensive and long-term support. We see care technology playing a vital role in supporting people to achieve the best outcomes as well as address the challenges facing social care, delivering wider benefits across our local health and housing sectors. The telecoms industry infrastructure changes, to upgrade their telephony lines from analogue to digital by 2025, has serious implications for the reliability and safety of our current analogue telecare provision if we do not shift to digital ready technology solutions (as recommended by OFCOM). Sutton Council therefore intends to commission a service provider to be a Key Strategic Partner to take forward its ambitions to achieve a proactive, personalised and predictive care technology service, that uses connected modern technologies and data driven insights and is based on the key principles of independence, inclusion, personalisation, interoperability, privacy and security

Renewal Options

The contract is for a period of five years with the option to extend for a further two years in two periods of one year. Each one year extension will be agreed at the sole discretion of the Council.
