## Summary

The Department for Education has concluded the re-procurement process for its Mobile Voice and Data Services contract, aiming to implement a new eSIM solution to be integrated with their existing ticketing systems. This procurement, under the industry category of "Telephone network" (CPV 32551400), involved a selective procurement method through a framework agreement. With a contract value of £173,124, the service will be delivered across various regions including the United Kingdom, Europe, and British Overseas Territories. The procurement process entered the award stage on 1st May 2025, with the contract period set from 1st May 2025 to 31st May 2028. The tendering process had concluded by 21st February 2025.

This contract presents opportunities for businesses specialising in advanced telecommunications solutions and service integration. Companies with expertise in implementing cutting-edge telecommunication services and those capable of providing scalable eSIM solutions would find this opportunity beneficial. Although the current contract has been awarded to BT Limited, the competitive landscape for similar future procurements can be fertile ground for SMEs, given the Department's noted preference for engaging with small and medium enterprises where feasible. Engaging in such public sector frameworks can greatly help businesses expand their market presence and leverage new technological advancements in the sector.
