The InnOvaTe Project:Internet of Things Supplier Engagement Event

Description

South London Partnership is working with London Councils to deliver an exciting and innovative "Internet of Things" (IoT) project across the five south London Councils of Croydon, Kingston upon Thames, Merton, Richmond upon Thames and Sutton. This initiative is funded by the Strategic Investment Pot (SIP) as part of the London Councils Business Rates Retention scheme which is administered by the City of London Corporation, and hopes to improve people's lives through the delivery of a multi-purpose Internet of Things (IoT) platform, which will connect various sensors across borough boundaries. Partnering with Digital Catapult and Kingston University, we will be conducting a number of pilots over the next 3 years to inform possible future adoption of this new technology at a much larger scale. We'd very much like you to join us at this Supplier event where we will explain more about the programme, our intended future procurement approach and tell you about our exciting "Idea Competition". The aim of this event is to give all relevant Suppliers a deeper understanding on the project goals and procurement aspirations, as well as deliver guidance and advice on how to be successful in proposals for the "Idea Competition", including further information on the judging criteria itself. At the end of the session there will be an opportunity for you to ask questions about the wider procurement approach, the "Idea Competition" and talk to those involved within the programme
