Summary of the contracting process

NYNET Public Sector Limited has completed the procurement process for the "Openreach Access Location Services Contracts," focusing on telecommunications services in rural areas of North Yorkshire. The contract, which was awarded to Openreach Limited under a direct award procurement method, is vital for providing essential Access Locate Services where Openreach is the sole supplier. The contract's active period extends from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2029, with potential extensions up to 2031. This procurement process aligns with NYNET's strategic reorganisation to enhance Wide Area Network Solution services, as outlined by legal basis law 2023/54.
