Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "Network ELA" was managed by the TEES ESK AND WEAR VALLEYS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST, aiming to provide software and incident support for network infrastructure across 100 sites. The contracting process falls under the industry category of network systems, specifically for services, and utilises a selective procurement method through a framework agreement. Located in the North East of England, this tender has reached the award stage, with British Telecommunications announced as the supplier on 19th March 2026 and the contract set to run from 31st March 2026 to 30th March 2031, with a contract value of £1,411,434 GBP.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in network system services, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive support for infrastructure and security products across multiple sites and devices. However, smaller businesses might find it challenging due to the scale and scope of work required, as the procurement suitability does not particularly favour SMEs or VCSE organisations. This contract highlights potential growth for larger network service providers with the capability to support extensive operational needs and manage complex network systems.
