Summary of the contracting process

The WM5G organisation is currently in the planning stage of a tender titled "Telecoms 5G core and associated facilities and services." This procurement, categorised under data network management and support services, aims to enhance the adoption of 5G and related technologies among SMEs in the Coventry and Warwickshire LEP area. The tender process is selective and will involve negotiation, with an end date for submissions set for 13 September 2021. The total budget allocated for this initiative is £400,000, reflecting a commitment to address regional productivity gaps and create skilled job opportunities.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for SMEs, particularly those involved in technology, telecommunications, or facility provision. Businesses that can offer a furnished, multipurpose event space or deliver end-to-end capabilities for 5G, IoT, and Wifi6 applications would be well-suited to compete. By participating in this process, companies can contribute to meaningful advancements in technology adoption while potentially benefiting from increased revenue and network expansion within the Midlands region.
