This contract, valued at £2,613,409, falls under the telecommunications network industry category, with a procurement method identified as a call-off from a framework agreement. The service regions include London, South East, and South West of the United Kingdom. The contract period extends from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2030, with the contract having been awarded on 15th August 2025 to Virgin Media Business Limited. The procurement stage of this process is classified under the award, and significant dates include the tender period ending on 1st August 2025.
