Summary of the contracting process

The North Ayrshire Council has issued a tender for the "Provision of Public Wi-Fi" as part of their Information Technology Services category, aiming to enhance connectivity within their council buildings. The procurement method was classified as a limited procedure, specifically an award without prior publication, and arose because a previous mini-competition did not attract any suitable bids. The contract, which is valued at £161,000, was signed on 20th January 2022 and has been awarded to British Telecommunications plc as the selected supplier. The location for this initiative is within the North Ayrshire region of the United Kingdom.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the information technology sector, particularly those specializing in network infrastructure and service provision. Companies that can offer comprehensive Wi-Fi installation and management services would be particularly well-suited to participate in future tenders from North Ayrshire Council, given their emphasis on enhancing public services through effective technology solutions. Additionally, given the recent challenges in attracting bids, businesses offering competitive pricing and innovative solutions may find a favourable environment to grow and compete in upcoming tenders.
