Summary of the contracting process

Bath and North East Somerset Council procured network equipment under the title Network Projects Kit. The procurement is categorised as services, although the item classification identifies network equipment. The council is based in Keynsham, and listed delivery locations include the United Kingdom and international destinations, as well as BS31 1FS. The requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers of network equipment able to serve this buyer and its stated delivery locations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Vizst Technology Limited on 25 September 2026. The council used an open procedure. The initial contract term runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2029, with no extensions available. The awarded value for the initial term is £82,658.28 excluding VAT (£99,189.94 including VAT). The published committed spend as at 1 October 2026 is £22,658.38 excluding VAT (£27,190.05 including VAT). The tender submission deadline was 13 September 2026. The procurement data does not state an evaluation basis.

This award provides evidence that Bath and North East Somerset Council buys network equipment through an open procedure. The requirement was marked suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the selected supplier, Vizst Technology Limited, is identified as an SME. For a future comparable requirement, a credible competitor would be a supplier able to provide network equipment for the council’s stated delivery locations and compete through an open procurement process. The available information does not describe specific technical capabilities, accreditations, capacity thresholds or experience requirements, so these cannot be treated as established conditions for competing.
