UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

City of Doncaster Council procured interim network and managed services for the Doncaster Sheffield Airport estate. The requirement covers continued network management and support, leased lines, and CCTV support. In practical terms, the work involves maintaining and supporting communications infrastructure, connectivity services and CCTV systems across an airport site. It is a services procurement, classified under data network management and support services. The buyer is the City of Doncaster Council, and delivery is at the Doncaster Sheffield Airport estate in Doncaster. This opportunity is therefore relevant to providers of managed network services, telecoms connectivity and infrastructure support, particularly those able to operate across a complex operational estate and support CCTV-related systems.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. City of Doncaster Council used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. CONNECTUS BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LTD was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2026, giving a six-month contract period. Its value is £26,499.48 excluding VAT and £31,799.38 including VAT. There was one lot covering the full requirement. The published outcome identifies the award as active and the contract as active. The procurement was evaluated through a non-competitive below-threshold route rather than through an open tender or scored competition.

This procurement shows a defined need for a supplier able to provide joined-up operational support across managed networks, leased-line connectivity and CCTV systems at an airport estate. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in data-network management and support, reliable handling of telecommunications infrastructure, and the capacity to maintain connectivity as an ongoing service. Experience supporting security-related CCTV infrastructure would also be relevant, alongside the ability to work across a geographically concentrated but operationally sensitive site. The awarded supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that delivery at this scale was suitable for a smaller specialist business rather than requiring a large national provider. Providers with this combination of network, connectivity and CCTV support capability are the closest commercial comparators.
