Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "DWP Data Centre Circuits" project, initiated by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), involved the award of two point-to-point fibre-based circuits connecting Corsham and Farnborough. This contract, categorised under information technology services, was awarded under a limited procurement method without prior publication of a contract notice. The tender period concluded on 16 March 2018, and the contract was awarded on 4 April 2018, with a total contract value of £112,680, slated to run until 4 April 2021. The delivery addresses for this project are located in the East of England, specifically at postal code SN13 9GB.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the information technology sector, particularly those specialising in digital connectivity and data services. Businesses equipped to deliver fibre optic solutions or related IT infrastructure would be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts, which could aid their expansion into the public sector. Engaging with the DWP or similar governmental bodies can open doors to additional projects in the realm of data services, enhancing growth potential for participating firms.
