Summary of the contracting process

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has recently completed a tender process for a project titled "Unified WiFi," which involves establishing two standalone Wi-Fi networks across seven of its offices. This procurement falls under the IT services category, with a total contract value of £124,209. The contract period is set from 29 March 2019 to 28 March 2021, following a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 3 December 2018, making this an essential project for organisations involved in providing IT services within the UK and overseas territories.

Given the CQC's emphasis on reliable technology in the healthcare sector, this tender may also attract companies with experience in delivering services to large public sector organisations and those familiar with compliance and security requirements.
