Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council has completed a public procurement process via a selective method, resulting in an award for the Call-Off Contract (Lot 4e Paging and Alerting) as part of network services. The contract, valued at £167,122.34, involves telecommunications equipment and supplies and is set for a contract period from 1st July 2026 to 30th June 2027 in the South East region, specifically Chichester, United Kingdom. The procurement followed a framework agreement, culminating in an award on 24th June 2026 to TELENT TECHNOLOGY SERVICES LTD, a large supplier well-suited for this category of work.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for large enterprises specialising in telecommunications equipment and supplies. Although the procurement process favours selective tendering, businesses that are part of a relevant framework can benefit greatly by delivering specialised services within the stipulated timeframe. Companies with robust capabilities in network services and a track record in handling government contracts might find similar opportunities in this sector, paving the way for establishing or expanding their presence within the public sector marketplace.
