Summary of the contracting process

The University of Cumbria has completed a public procurement process to acquire Internet Access Services for its Halls of Residences, classified under the Networking, Internet and intranet software package. The procurement falls within the "goods" category and was conducted via the Health Trust Europe Framework for Enterprise Level ICT Digital Technology Solutions 2023. This process was performed without prior publication of a call for competition due to regulatory exemptions. The procurement stage is now in the award phase, with Boxxe Limited being awarded the contract valued at £438,480. The contract was signed on 1 September 2023, and the services are to be delivered to locations within the UKD region, specifically in Carlisle.

This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in the ICT sector, particularly those offering networking and internet solutions. Companies specialising in providing robust and reliable internet services to educational institutions and student accommodations would find this contract particularly appealing. The absence of a traditional competitive tendering process suggests that businesses with established relationships within specific frameworks or those adept at navigating direct award procedures could secure significant growth and revenue from such contracts. Large-scale suppliers with the ability to deliver high standards of service are particularly well-suited for such opportunities.
