The contract, which commenced on 1st May 2019, has a duration of 5 years and 5 months, ending on 30th September 2024. This initiative is specifically aimed at enhancing connectivity during the Godiva Music Festival, scheduled for 5th to 7th July 2019, and potentially for other major events held at the park. The procurement method was specified as 'Other', and the project falls under the categories of Local Area Network and Internet Services. This contract presents significant opportunities for technology and telecommunications businesses, particularly those specialising in Wi-Fi solutions and network services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage in the bid process, leveraging their capabilities to meet the technical requirements of providing Wi-Fi across various events. Companies with experience in offering large-scale network installations and ongoing service management may find themselves particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts, allowing them to expand their portfolios and client bases in public sector projects. ## Notice Coventry City Council requires the provision of free permanent public Wi-Fi at War Memorial Park, Kenilworth Road, Coventry, CV3 6PT with an extended Wi-Fi provision to be supplied annually for the Godiva Music Festival on the weekend it takes place. The permanent Wi-Fi service will be based at 2 main park buildings, the tennis pavilion and the visitors centre covering a pathed area of the park around these buildings. The extended Wi-Fi will be extended from the permanent service to cover the annual Godiva Music Festival which is held in a location within the park at the same address, which is further away from the buildings where the permanent Wi-Fi shall be based. The extended Wi-Fi requirement will cover the festival back stage / administration / traders as well as visitor Wi-Fi for the festival. It is the expectation that the permanent Wi-Fi may be extended (or Godiva Festival extension replicated) for any other large visitor events that maybe held within the Memorial Park during the term of the contract. The contract commencement is expected to commence following agreement of the concession contract following award, but as a working date the target commencement is the 1st May 2019 (or earlier if agreed) and the contract term will be 5 years and 5 months until September 30th 2024. The awarded supplier will need as part of the new contract to deliver the free Wi-Fi for the Godiva Festival 2019 confirmed to take place on the 5th, 6th, 7th July 2019. The dates for Godiva Festival may vary in future years under the contract. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Jul 2019 | | Submission deadline | 5 Apr 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 16 Apr 2019 | | Contract period | 30 Apr 2019 - 30 Sep 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £168,500 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | COVENTRY - SOLIHULL - WARWICKSHIRE | | Locality | COVENTRY | | Post town | Coventry | | Postcode | CV1 2GN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG33 Coventry | | Local authority | Coventry | | Electoral ward | St Michael's | | Westminster constituency | Coventry South | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | INTECHNOLOGY WIFI | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 32410000 - Local area network - 72400000 - Internet services - 72710000 - Local area network services ## Release History - 23 Jul 2019 at 08:01 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 - 23 Jul 2019 at 08:00 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 - 17 May 2019 at 10:22 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 - 24 Apr 2019 at 08:24 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d50ba574-1278-4267-aa3a-aa28184e55e4 23rd July 2019 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
