Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Citizen Housing Group Limited procured mobile voice and data services, including mobile connections, airtime and data packages, together with cellular handsets and SIM cards. The services support the organisation’s enterprise operations and are delivered through the supplier’s mobile network. The work is located in the West Midlands. This is a mobile telecommunications services requirement, covering both connectivity and the associated hardware needed by the buyer.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Social Telecoms CIC. The contract was awarded on 1 September 2026, with a contract period from 7 September 2026 to 6 September 2029. The awarded value is £310,000. The original estimated procurement value ranged from £300,000 to £350,000. The buyer used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 1 August 2026. The published information does not describe the award evaluation basis or set out lots or eligibility requirements.

This award demonstrates demand from Citizen Housing Group for a single supplier to provide mobile voice and data connectivity alongside handsets and SIM cards, with service delivered through the supplier’s mobile network. A credible competitor for this requirement would need to support the buyer’s enterprise operations with reliable mobile connections, airtime and data packages, and supply the associated cellular hardware. The award went to an SME, and the procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller suppliers can compete through the framework call-off route. The requirement is for an integrated mobile service and equipment offer, rather than hardware alone.
