## Summary

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has recently completed a tender process for a project titled "Unified WiFi," which involves establishing two standalone Wi-Fi networks across seven of its offices. This procurement falls under the IT services category, with a total contract value of £124,209. The contract period is set from 29 March 2019 to 28 March 2021, following a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 3 December 2018, making this an essential project for organisations involved in providing IT services within the UK and overseas territories.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in network infrastructure and support. Firms well-versed in providing wireless solutions and capable of managing complex installations across multiple locations would be particularly suited for such contracts. Given the CQC's emphasis on reliable technology in the healthcare sector, this tender may also attract companies with experience in delivering services to large public sector organisations and those familiar with compliance and security requirements.

## Notice

The service requirement is for two, standalone, Wi-Fi networks across 7 offices at CQC. One "always on" service that can automatically be connected to via CQC devices with the IP to authenticate using the existing CQC Group Policy. An automatic connection once the laptop has been removed from the LAN and released once it goes onto the LAN.
