Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council procured the migration of Rothercare’s telephone services from analogue to digital. The requirement covers ISDN30 migration, cloud voice SIP services and BTnet connectivity, combining telephone network equipment with voice and network services. Delivery is in Rotherham, in Yorkshire and the Humber. This is a council telephony upgrade focused on moving Rothercare from analogue systems to digital communications. British Telecommunications Limited was selected to deliver the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to British Telecommunications Limited on 10 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £47,449.44. The contract runs from 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2029. The council used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 7 August 2026. The procurement was treated as goods, with telephone network equipment as its main classification. The recorded suitability assessment says it was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No lot breakdown or evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

For suppliers competing when Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council next buys this requirement, credibility will depend on the ability to deliver an end-to-end analogue-to-digital telephony migration for a public-sector service: ISDN30 migration, cloud voice SIP and BTnet connectivity. The selected supplier was a large telecommunications company, indicating that the council’s requirement was met by a provider able to bring these telephone and network components together. The route used was a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable council work should be positioned to compete through the relevant framework arrangements. The scale is a defined, multi-year Rothercare telephony upgrade rather than a general telecommunications requirement. No specific technical accreditations, staffing levels or prior-experience thresholds are stated.
