Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit has completed the procurement process for broadband services for NHS GP surgeries located in Buckinghamshire and Berkshire West. The initiative, titled "Broadband services for NHS GP Surgeries (Bucks and Berks West) 2025 - 2028", falls under the industry category of hardware installation services. These services are set to commence from 30th November 2025 and will continue until 29th November 2028, covering England within the United Kingdom. This procurement process, following a selective method via the Crown Commercial Services Network Services 3 Framework, was awarded to Vodafone Limited, with the award status being active as of 14th November 2025.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in hardware installation and network services, particularly those capable of delivering broadband solutions within the healthcare sector. As the contract is valued at £140,697, large-scale enterprises like Vodafone, which can leverage economies of scale to offer competitive pricing and robust service delivery, may find this particularly advantageous. While the procurement method favoured established companies, small and medium enterprises can explore potential future opportunities by registering through the SCW E-Procurement Web Site, ensuring readiness for similar tenders. Businesses with expertise in inter-site connectivity and data access services will be well-suited to pursue future contracts of this nature.
