Summary of the contracting process

Historic England has successfully completed a procurement process for wide area network services titled "Network Services - WAN." The process, classified under CPV code 72720000, targeted the services industry category and aimed to enhance the organisation's Fortinet infrastructure across 10 UK sites. Initiated on 24 July 2024, the tender followed an open procedure and culminated with the contract award on 30 September 2024. The significant dates in this process included the tender period ending on 23 August 2024 and the contract valued at £4,500,000 being awarded shortly thereafter. The winning bidder, CDW Ltd, is now responsible for installing dual DIA circuits and providing comprehensive managed support services.

This tender represented a prime opportunity for businesses specialising in network services, particularly those with expertise in Fortinet infrastructure and network support. The project scope required capabilities in handling wide area network services, network interfaces, routers, cabling, and comprehensive managed services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) were also well-positioned to compete, as evidenced by 4 out of 9 bids coming from SMEs. Businesses with robust technical and support service offerings could leverage such contracts to expand their footprint within the public sector and demonstrate their technical competencies.
