Summary of the contracting process

The University of Nottingham is seeking providers for a tender titled "Telephone system maintenance support," which falls under the category of telephone network maintenance services. This procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract valued at £270,000. The tender period concluded on 18 March 2022, with the contract scheduled to commence on 1 August 2022 and run until 31 July 2025. The service is required at the University’s premises located at Kings Meadow Campus, Nottingham, in the East Midlands region of England. The procurement method used is a limited, negotiated procedure without prior publication due to the circumstances surrounding the need for reliable support amidst transitioning service models.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialised in telephone network maintenance services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that can provide tailored support to educational institutions. The potential for growth lies in establishing long-term relationships with a prominent institution such as the University of Nottingham, which may lead to further contracts as their support and maintenance needs evolve. Companies that possess experience in handling complex telecommunication systems and can offer innovative solutions during this transition phase would be well-positioned to compete in future procurement opportunities.

Notice Title

Telephone system maintenance support

Notice Description

Getronics have been providing support for our telephone systems for many years. Not only do we lack the resource to be able to engage in a compliant procurement, but there is also great uncertainty around the future support model for this system, as our digital partner, CGI, start to take on the running and maintaining of our various platforms. Embarking on a tender at this stage would be a challenge.
