## Summary

Corby Borough Council has completed a tender for the contract titled "Internet Provision 2018," aimed at servicing the council's internet needs at Deene House, located in Corby, East Midlands, England. The procurement process, conducted through a limited competitive quotation method, was concluded successfully with a contract award on 8th August 2018. The contract, valued at £39,690, is set to commence on 10th September 2018 and will run for a minimum of two years, with a possible one-year extension.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for internet service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that could meet the specific requirements outlined by Corby Borough Council. With the need for reliable connectivity and a failover system in place, this contract could help service providers expand their portfolios and establish long-term relationships with local government entities, contributing to their growth in the public sector market.

## Notice

The current internet provider was procured with East Northants. This has raised potential risk and caused problems in the past as Corby Borough Council is reliant on East Northants' availability. ICT services would like to procure a new internet provider to directly serve Corby Borough Council into Deene House. The new service provider will provide internet into Deene House with an Auto Failover at The Cube if Deene House was to ever lose connectivity. A point to point service will be setup for any shared services at East Northants to ensure we keep services up and running. Additional information: This contract is to run for a minimum of 2 years, with the option for one further one-year extension, in essence a maximum three-year contract.
