## Summary

The Leeds College of Art & Design is currently seeking a sole supplier for ad-hoc networking services, specifically installation of data ports and cabling, primarily across its three buildings in Leeds, Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement is in the Tender stage, with the tender period ending on 3rd February 2017. The contract is scheduled to commence on 1st April 2017 and will run until 31st March 2019. This project typically requires the installation of about 40-50 data ports annually, primarily over the summer months, due to increased space requirements or usage changes.

This procurement opportunity can significantly benefit businesses specializing in data installation, cabling, and network services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate their capability to manage projects of this nature. Interested vendors should possess expertise in both the physical installation of network equipment and the required technical knowledge, as they will be responsible for providing all cabling, back sockets, and network cabinets, while the College will supply the switches and wall trunking. This is an excellent chance for such companies to expand their portfolio and establish a long-term relationship with a prestigious educational institution.

## Notice

The College is seeking a sole supplier to provide ad-hoc installation of data ports and cabling. Typically this is in the region of 40-50 data ports a year (either new or the relocation of existing ports), with the majority being placed over the summer months. These are usually required due to room expansion or a change of usage. The College has 3 main buildings: * Blenheim Walk (main campus, constructed in the 1980's) * Vernon Street (2 adjoined buildings, early 1900's) * Church (formerly Blenheim Baptist Church, now converted to offices). The College is also building an extension to its Blenheim Walk building which is due for completion in July 2018 (to be confirmed). This extension will join the existing structure and will consist of six levels (3 to -2) of varying size and function. The successful supplier will be responsible for the provision of all cabling, back sockets, and network cabinets. The College will be responsible for the provision of the switches and wall trunking.
