UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust, located in Exeter, United Kingdom, recently completed a procurement process concerning internet connections under the tender titled "SWAST-5013W-DDaT Internet connections". This contract, awarded on 7th April 2026 and signed on 24th March 2026, is set to run from 5th April 2026 to 4th April 2027. The procurement method used was 'direct', indicating that the contract was awarded below the threshold, without competition. The primary industry category is 'goods', more specifically networking, internet, and intranet software packages, applicable within the UKK region.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for companies offering internet and networking solutions. Although this specific procurement did not involve a competitive process, similar future opportunities could be ideal for businesses specialising in advanced digital communications and infrastructure, particularly those looking to partner with public sector organisations such as NHS Trusts. With a gross contract value of £47,151.07, larger businesses, like the awarded supplier Daisy Communications Ltd, are well-positioned to leverage their scale and expertise in delivering similar public sector contracts.
