Summary of the contracting process

The Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Service has recently completed a procurement process for Network Services, specifically aimed at Wide Area Network services (CPV code: 72720000). The procurement method employed was an open procedure, and it was officially awarded on 14th August 2017, with the contract effective from 4th September 2017 until 5th September 2020. The minimum contract value stood at £300,000, ultimately amounting to £342,000, with the contract delivery located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The tender period concluded on 28th July 2017, making it crucial for suppliers to have been prepared prior to this date.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in telecommunications or IT services, particularly those focusing on network infrastructure. Businesses equipped to provide data access services would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. With the awarded contract to MLL Telecom Ltd, there may be further openings for collaboration or indirect participation in future phases or related tenders following the existing contract's expiry.
