Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process led by Karbon Homes, located in Newcastle, United Kingdom, culminated in the award of a contract for mobile phones. The contract is categorised under the goods industry, specifically for mobile telephones, and covers the supply of Samsung A56 5G Enterprise Edition handsets along with related accessories and Knox Suite Licenses. This limited competition procurement, below the threshold, was completed on 6th August 2025, with TET Limited as the chosen supplier. The delivery addresses for this procurement include regions within the UK known as UKC and UKE. The contract duration extends from August 2025 to January 2028, providing a significant time frame for fulfilment and ongoing engagement.

This procurement provides a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in the supply and distribution of mobile technology and related goods. SMEs with capabilities in mobile telecommunication equipment and accessories are particularly well-suited to compete in such tenders due to the specific requirements outlined, such as the provision of enterprise edition handsets and protective cases. Furthermore, businesses looking to expand their client base in the public sector, specifically those focusing on sub-central government public authorities, will find this type of procurement highly beneficial for growth and establishing long-term partnerships. The contract's gross value of £114,187 demonstrates a lucrative opportunity for suppliers meeting the technical and product specifications.
