Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Abbeyfield Society is seeking tenders for the provision of landlines and mobile phones, with a focus on consolidating their current mobile and data services. The procurement, classified under the CPV code for mobile telephones, is currently in the "active" tender stage. The tender period ended on 26 August 2016, and the contract is expected to run from 12 September 2016 to 11 September 2018. The estimated contract value is £140,000, with a minimum threshold of £90,000. Interested suppliers will be providing mobile phone handsets, plans, and potentially transferring over 500 existing business PSTN lines across various geographical locations, including the United Kingdom and overseas territories.

This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in telecommunications, particularly those experienced in providing mobile devices and installation services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to apply, as the open procedure method allows a broad participation base. Companies capable of managing the installation and integration of new mobile services while phasing out existing contracts will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, along with those with a strong track record in customer support and service optimisation.
