## Summary

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust procured managed Wide Area Network (WAN) services, covering network connectivity and telecommunications requirements delivered for the Trust in England. The requirement is classified as a wide area network service (CPV 32430000) and is described as a framework call-off for WAN services. It concerns the Trust’s connectivity infrastructure rather than a one-off supply of equipment, with the purpose of providing managed network connectivity over the contract term. The buyer is West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust, whose registered address is in Welwyn Garden City. The delivery location is in the United Kingdom, associated with the Trust’s West Hertfordshire hospital operations.

This procurement has been awarded and the process is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from the Network Connectivity and Telecommunication Solutions 2 YPO Framework. Redcentric Solutions Limited was awarded the contract on 18 August 2026 for £517,300. The procurement’s stated minimum value was £500,000 and its stated value was £517,300. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. The arrangement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active, and the selected supplier is a large organisation. No separate lots or additional evaluation criteria are identified in the procurement information.

This award indicates established demand from an NHS trust for a managed WAN and wider network connectivity service delivered through a public-sector framework. Suppliers competing for comparable requirements would need demonstrable capability to design, operate and support wide area network infrastructure, together with telecommunications and connectivity service management. They would also need the operational capacity to maintain a dependable service for a hospital trust over a multi-year arrangement, manage performance across the relevant sites and work within a framework call-off route. The recorded outcome suggests the buyer selected a large supplier, so competitors would need to show sufficient scale, resilience, service-management maturity and relevant public-sector delivery experience to be credible for a future requirement of this type.
