## Summary

The public procurement process, titled "CMA Active Networking", was conducted by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) for establishing a modern Local Area Network (LAN) and wireless solution at their new premises in Cabot Square, London. This project falls within the services industry and has a contract value of £548,773.75. The procurement method employed was selective, utilising a call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender period concluding on 9th November 2018 and the contract period spanning from 26th November 2018 to 11th January 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the IT and network infrastructure sectors, particularly those specialising in local area network solutions. Companies that can demonstrate their capacity to deliver robust LAN and wireless systems, as well as manage network infrastructures for seamless transitions, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Given the CMA's focus on upgrading their technological capabilities, this project could contribute to their operational efficiency, thus opening avenues for growth for suppliers equipped to meet these demands.

## Notice

In order to correctly handle cloud-based applications along with local services i.e. AV, CCTV, Printing, Meeting Room Booking systems etc there will be a requirement for a robust and modern LAN and Wireless solution in the CMA's new premises at Cabot Square. There is also a need to operate parallel network infrastructure across Victoria House and Cabot Square in readiness for the office move. This will enable a smooth transition of core applications whilst performing thorough testing of any new services.
