This initiative falls under the telecommunications industry and is located in the East Midlands region of England. The tender, categorized as an open procedure, concluded on 18th October 2019, and was initiated to assess the Council's mobile telephony needs amidst a rapidly evolving service delivery environment. The value of this consultancy contract is £60,000, with a contract period running from 5th November 2019 to 4th November 2020, aimed at generating revenue savings and service improvements. This consultancy opportunity is ideal for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in telecommunications and consultancy services. Businesses with expertise in mobile technology and strategic advisory services will find this tender particularly relevant, especially those capable of delivering innovative solutions that address the Council’s need for flexibility and cost-effectiveness. Engaging in this process can position these firms as key contributors to transforming the Council's mobile telephony strategy, ultimately fostering business growth and enhancing service delivery capabilities. ## Notice The Council wishes to engage a suitably qualified and experienced consultancy firm to advise on the approach it should take to procure a corporate mobile telephony solution. The Council is operating in a rapidly-changing environment where flexibility, agility and cost reduction are key. Innovations in front-line service delivery are increasingly dependent on resilient, performant mobile telephony services so maintaining adequate service levels is essential. The Council does wish to explore models for delivery of mobile telephony. Consultants will therefore be expected to gain an understanding of the Council's future business requirements for mobile telephony through interviews with a small number of key service representatives. Alongside this careful consideration will need to be given to the efficacy of existing provision and where service level improvements can cost-effectively be made. Flexibility to respond to changing business needs and an ability to adopt new mobile telephony technologies as they develop, will be critically important, as is the clear need to generate revenue savings. The main deliverable from this work will be a strategic plan/report which sets out a recommended approach for the procurement of the above services for replacement and development of the Council's mobile telephony (and associated service).
