Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire Constabulary procured an additional internet circuit and router for its Warrington office. This is an internet connectivity service, classified under CPV 72400000, intended to support the constabulary’s office network. The buying organisation is Cheshire Constabulary, based in Winsford, Cheshire. The procurement is categorised as services and relates specifically to telecommunications connectivity and associated network equipment rather than general IT support or construction. The requirement was delivered for the Warrington office, with the procurement record also associating delivery with the United Kingdom and wider locations. The awarded supplier is TalkTalk Business Direct Limited, whose registered address is in Salford, Manchester.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to TalkTalk Business Direct Limited. The award was made on 13 July 2026 for £65,332, and the contract runs from 13 July 2026 to 12 July 2031. It was called off through the Low Value Purchase System Framework RM 6273. The recorded value is an estimate based on charges over the five-year contract period. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026 at 10:19. The procurement used a described alternative method under the framework. The requirement was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The contract covers one internet circuit and router requirement for the Warrington office.

For a supplier assessing future demand from Cheshire Constabulary, this award demonstrates a requirement for business internet connectivity combined with router provision for a police office, sourced through the LVPS Framework RM 6273. A credible competitor would need telecommunications and network infrastructure capability, including the ability to supply, configure and support an internet circuit and associated router as one service. The selected supplier profile indicates that established connectivity providers with the operational capacity to support a public-sector office requirement are relevant. Suppliers considering comparable work should assess their access to the same framework route, their ability to provide resilient business connectivity, and their experience managing network equipment and service delivery over a multi-year public-sector contract.
