Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, acting for itself and the Chief Constable of North Yorkshire Police, procured mobile connectivity services covering voice and data. The requirement is for telecommunications and data services, including the provision of mobile voice and data connectivity for North Yorkshire Police. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the Combined Authority, with the police force as the operational beneficiary. This is a public-sector mobile communications requirement rather than a general IT or fixed-line telecommunications project. Suppliers relevant to comparable work would provide mobile network connectivity and associated voice and data services at organisational scale, supporting the communications needs of a police service across the area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Vodafone Limited. The award date was 11 September 2026, with an awarded value of £109,599.60. The contract period runs from 12 September 2026 to 12 May 2027. It was a selective procurement using a call-off from the RM6261 framework, through Lot 1, rather than a standalone open tender. The tender had a submission deadline of 10 September 2026. The recorded requirement was not suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The process covered one mobile voice and data services requirement, and the available outcome information records Vodafone as the selected supplier.

This award provides a clear benchmark for suppliers targeting future mobile communications requirements from North Yorkshire Police and the Combined Authority. A credible competitor would need to deliver both mobile voice and data connectivity, support a public-sector policing customer, and operate at a scale comparable with the awarded supplier, Vodafone Limited, which is recorded as a large organisation. Experience of delivering telecommunications and data services through a public-sector framework would be commercially relevant, particularly the ability to use the RM6261 route and meet its call-off requirements. Suppliers should also be able to support reliable organisational mobile connectivity across Yorkshire and the Humber, with service capability suited to operational users rather than consumer-only provision.
