Notice Title

Telecommunication Services for the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games

Notice Description

Technology is critical to the success of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games (the 'Games'). It enables the functionality vital to delivering the Games, together with the ICT services that underpin the operation of other key business functions of the Organising Committee. A key factor for the successful operation of Games technology is the provision of best-in-class telecommunications infrastructure and associated services, since these represent the foundation upon which all technology services for the Games are delivered. Telecommunication services are required to enable both in-venue and Games wide connectivity, critical communications and internet access services for functions such as broadcast TV, sport specific timing and scoring systems, results distribution, website/cloud applications for Games operations and event services. The telecommunication services required to deliver the Games are divided into three distinct Lots for the procurement as follows: * Lot 1: Fixed and Mobile Connectivity Services; * Lot 2: Venue Network Integration Services; * Lot 3: Venue Network Equipment. Further information about the Authority's requirements can be found in the OJEU Contract Notice and in its Descriptive Document available at www.delta-esourcing.com. Additional information: 71 Commonwealth nations and territories are expected to participate in the XXII Commonwealth Games, which is one of the world's largest multi-sport events, bringing together over 4000 of the world's elite athletes every four years, in an 11-day festival of sport and culture. Events will take place from 27.7.2022 to 7.8.2022 in venues across Birmingham and the West Midlands. London's Olympic velodrome will also be utilised. It is estimated that the contract value range is 7 980 000 GBP to 10 400 000 GBP. The upper end of the estimated value range is based on proven approaches and existing technologies used during past major events. However, acknowledging that the technology space is ever-changing in response to evolving client needs, emerging new technologies and changing end-user behaviour, the Authority is open to considering innovative solutions for delivering the required telecommunications services, which are more cost efficient and represent better value for money. It should be noted that the Authority is encouraging innovative approaches in a parallel procurement for Host Broadcasting Services which could potentially impact the scope of provision for, and hence the value of, the Lot 1 services. This will be discussed with the Lot 1 tenderers in the dialogue phase of the procurement. Candidates will have the option to apply for any or all of the Lots, subject to meeting the requirements outlined in the procurement documents. Candidates who are successful at the selection stage for all of the Lots, will have the option to submit a commercial offer on an individual Lot basis, a multi-lot basis combing all three Lots, or both. Accordingly, the Authority reserves the right to award a contract combining the three Lots, in the event that a multi-lot bid, taken as a whole, scores higher against the award criteria stated in the procurement documents.
