Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Northamptonshire Council (NNC) has awarded a contract for a Managed Wide Area Network (WAN) service encompassing voice, data, and video, along with Managed Internet Access Service. The contract, which pertains to IT services such as consulting, software development, Internet and support, was procured using a selective call-off from an existing framework agreement established by Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) with Virgin Media/O2. Located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom, the contract period begins on 21 November 2024 and ends on 21 November 2029, with a tender period that concluded on 1 November 2024.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in IT services, especially those specialising in network management and Internet access solutions. Large-scale enterprises with robust capabilities in this field may find this agreement particularly lucrative, as they can leverage their expertise to provide comprehensive connectivity and support services. Although small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) were deemed unsuitable for this specific contract, competitive entities within the IT industry can effectively pursue similar contracts by forming partnerships or enhancing their service offerings to meet such stringent requirements.
