## Description
The contract is for the provision of a Technology Enabled Care Service (TECS) across Herefordshire. The service supports vulnerable residents to live safely and independently in their own homes and helps prevent avoidable hospital admissions.
The contract is jointly commissioned by Herefordshire Council and NHS Herefordshire and Worcestershire Integrated Care Board (ICB) and supports both organisations in meeting their statutory responsibilities under the Care Act 2014 for the provision of community equipment and technology-enabled care services.
The service includes the supply, installation, maintenance and monitoring of technology-enabled care equipment, community equipment, daily living aids and minor adaptations, together with the collection, cleaning, refurbishment and recycling of equipment no longer required.
Continuity of this service is essential to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of individuals who rely on technology-enabled care and community equipment to remain safely in their own homes. Any disruption to service provision could result in increased risks to service users, including avoidable hospital admissions, delays in hospital discharge, safeguarding concerns, and a reduced ability to live independently.

Due to system constraints within the publication platform, certain dates displayed in this notice may not reflect the actual commencement date of the contract.

The contract documentation was finalised and the contract formally executed on 3 July 2026. Any contract dates generated or recorded by the system should therefore not be interpreted as the date of the actual commencement of the contract.
