V00425 Nurse Call Systems Support and maintenance for NHS Golden Jubilee

Description

Nurse call systems are an important life safety system which have a direct impact on patient services and safety, these systems are located in patient areas and allow patients to summon nursing assistance at the bed space or nursing location, and for the clinical staff to communicate remotely with the patient and with each other which is an essential life safety component of bedhead services. Due to the specialist service of nurse call systems there are a small number of recognised service providers who have the resource, technical expertise and maintenance coverage that healthcare facilities require. Static systems are one of these providers and at GJ the nurse call systems are manufactured, installed and maintained by Static. Due to the technical requirements, including the need of the upgrade needing to link up to existing Static Systems Group nurse call system which is a closed loop system coupled with the local understandings of the ward areas progressing these works through Static Systems would provide seamless upgrade. GJ believes that Static System Group are the only supplier that can conduct this requirement due to the Static Systems Group Nurse Call system installed has been a closed loop Static Systems Group Nurse Call system. Therefore the best course of action to insure compliance with procurement regulations, and ensure the continued maintenance of these systems, is to publish a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice.
