Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cambridgeshire procured AudioCodes Session Border Controller (SBC) essentials and configuration training. The requirement was for professional training services, identified as personal development training, under the buyer’s LNA 37 reference. The available description links the training to AudioCodes SBC essentials and configuration; it does not set out a wider delivery scope or identify a specific delivery location. The buyer is the Cambridgeshire police and crime commissioner, with its address in Huntingdon. This is a specialist technical training requirement rather than a purchase of SBC equipment or a general IT support service.

The procurement is complete and awarded following limited competition below the relevant threshold. Fast Lane Consulting and Education Services was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026, runs from 4 to 5 September 2026, and is valued at £22,080 including gross value. The award covers one lot for the AudioCodes SBC essentials and configuration training requirement. The published procurement information does not give a separate award date or describe the evaluation criteria, so the basis on which the supplier was selected cannot be stated beyond the limited competition route.

For suppliers considering similar work for this buyer, the award indicates demand for focused AudioCodes SBC training covering essential knowledge and configuration. A credible competitor would need demonstrable expertise in AudioCodes session border controllers and the ability to deliver practical, product-specific training within a short engagement. Training providers with relevant technical instructors and experience educating users or technical teams on SBC configuration are the closest fit. The successful supplier was a large company, but the requirement itself was a single, specialised training assignment rather than a broad technology implementation. This buyer’s purchase therefore offers a useful indicator for firms whose core work includes vendor-specific networking or communications training, rather than suppliers focused only on equipment supply or general consultancy.
