Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, conducted by the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust, involved the procurement of "LAS Nexus Replacement Switches" under a Pan London ICT Framework call-off. This contract was designed to supply Cisco N9K-C93108YC-FX3 48-port data centre switches with additional memory and iNcare support services. The industry category is classified under Network infrastructure, with additional relevance to Computer-related equipment, aimed at enhancing critical network infrastructure. Located in London, with the postal code SE1 8SD, the procurement used a selective method, part of a framework agreement, and was in the Award stage as of September 3, 2025. The contract was active from August 7, 2025, and is set to conclude on August 6, 2026, with the tender stage closing on July 7, 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the network infrastructure and ICT services sectors, particularly those capable of providing specialised support services. While the contract was awarded to a large-scale enterprise, such as the British Telecommunications Public Limited Company, smaller businesses with similar capabilities could potentially engage in future tendering opportunities through strategic alignment with framework agreements. Companies that can deliver high-quality ICT hardware and offer continuous service support and maintenance will find this type of procurement particularly beneficial for expanding their business footprint in the public sector.
