Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England procured Teams telephony services: the reprocurement of its Microsoft Teams telephone service, within the wider telecommunications services category (CPV 64200000). The requirement is for the service itself rather than telecoms equipment or construction. NHS England is the buyer, and the listed delivery location is Leeds, England. The service was sourced through Lot 1 of the Crown Commercial Service Network Services 3 framework, using its eMarketplace. The requirement is described as a reprocurement, indicating continuation of an existing Teams telephony service rather than a new service specification. This provides a relevant reference point for providers of business telephony and communications services with the ability to support NHS England’s Teams-based telephony requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to GCI Network Solutions, trading as Nasstar. The award was made on 16 October 2026, with a contract period from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The awarded contract value is £46,620. The procurement was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, specifically Lot 1 of CCS Network Services 3. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026. The stated estimated procurement range was £15,540 to £46,620. The record does not describe separate lots within this call-off. SME participation was marked suitable, while suitability for voluntary, community and social enterprises was marked false. No evaluation criteria are stated in the process details.

This award demonstrates a defined NHS England requirement for Teams telephony delivered through an established public-sector network services framework, rather than a standalone open competition. A credible competitor would need to provide dependable business telephony integrated with Microsoft Teams and be capable of supporting the buyer’s service needs through the framework’s call-off route. The requirement was considered suitable for SMEs, so smaller providers with relevant technical capability and the capacity to deliver a public-sector service could be well placed, provided they can participate through the relevant framework arrangement. The selected supplier is a large provider, illustrating that the contract was awarded to a business able to deliver the requirement at organisational scale. This is specific evidence of demand for Teams telephony at NHS England, not a general signal about other communications work.
