Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, located in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, has successfully completed a procurement process for the "Provision of Mobile Voice & Data Services." The service falls under the telecommunications services industry, with additional aspects linked to IT services. This process, with a total value of £236,952, used a direct award procurement method, resulting in Vodafone Limited being selected as the supplier. The contract, beginning on 29th May 2025 and ending on 28th May 2029, covers various delivery locations including the UK, Channel Islands, Europe, and more. The award was active from 19th May 2025.

This procurement represents significant opportunities for businesses involved in telecommunications and IT services, as such contracts can expand their existing service portfolios and client base across diverse regions.
