## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office is seeking telecommunications services, specifically for satellite services, through a tender process that concluded on 28th April 2022. This contract, valued at £42,960, is part of a call-off from the OGD Contract Ref: NETBLOS/SAT009. The award was announced on 13th May 2022, with the contract period set from 29th April 2022 to 31st August 2022. The delivery location is Milton Keynes, England, under the classification of telecommunications equipment and supplies.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in telecommunications, particularly those offering satellite services, to engage with a prominent government authority.

The successful supplier, NSSL Global Ltd, demonstrates the type of enterprise well-positioned to succeed in this domain.
