Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire Police is currently engaged in a procurement process for the "ISDN Circuits" contract, classified under the goods category of networks, with a focus on essential telecommunications services. The procurement method employed is limited, and the contract has already been awarded to Virgin Media Business, with an active status. This contract, amounting to £64,143, was signed on 9th April 2021, and extends existing arrangements for a year due to the impending obsolescence of the ISDN 999 circuits.

This opportunity presents a potential avenue for growth for businesses specialising in telecommunications and network services. Companies with the ability to adapt quickly to service extensions or replacements and those who are experienced in managing contracts within public sector frameworks will be well-suited to compete. The current award to Virgin Media Business underscores the importance of strong supplier relationships in a competitive environment where services are rapidly evolving.
