Summary of the contracting process

Epsom and Ewell Borough Council has completed a procurement process titled "Firewalls Replacement," classified within the services industry category. The process primarily focused on providing hardware installation services, including firewalls hardware, software, and support, located in Epsom, UKJ26. The procurement was initiated under a limited method due to being below the threshold, indicating limited competition. The tender was in the award and contract stages as of early February 2026, with the contract valid from 23 December 2025 to 22 December 2028, totalling a value of £71,642 gross. The Council issued the contract to MAPLE NETWORKS LIMITED, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Wetherby.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for SMEs, particularly those specialising in IT and hardware installation services. The limited competition method often benefits smaller firms that might otherwise face challenges in more competitive bidding environments. Businesses that provide comprehensive support and installation of IT infrastructure, especially those with the capability to deliver service and support in the UKJ26 region, stand to gain from engagements of this nature. The emphasis on hardware installation services underscores a demand for firms equipped to handle such technical requirements efficiently, creating a promising avenue for similar businesses to expand their service offerings to public sector clients.
