Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process involved Ashford Borough Council, which sought provision of landline telephone services under the title "Landlines." This project falls within the telecommunications industry and was specifically located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, allowing wider participation. The tender was active until 31 March 2009, and the awarded contract, valued at £32,500, commenced on 1 July 2009 and concluded on 31 July 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in telecommunication services, to engage in future contracts similar to the one previously awarded to Vodafone Ltd (Landline). Companies that can provide reliable and efficient landline solutions, along with those that are adept at managing local government accounts, will find themselves well-positioned to compete. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary or community sector enterprises (VCSEs) may also consider exploring such opportunities within the framework of local government tenders.
