## Summary

The procurement process involves Norfolk County Council, which has established a multi-provider Framework Agreement for network cabling services specifically for schools. The project, titled "Framework Agreement for Network Cabling for Schools," falls under the network cabling industry category and is located in the East of England. The procurement method used is an open procedure, which was active until the tender period closed on 7 January 2019. The contract period runs from 31 January 2019 to 30 January 2023, with an estimated total value of £500,000.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in network cabling services, particularly those with experience in educational environments. Companies that can offer staff with enhanced DBS checks and are capable of responding to emergencies efficiently would be well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage, as the framework aims to include a diverse range of suppliers able to meet the specific requirements of schools throughout Norfolk.

## Notice

Appointed providers will need to be able to respond to emergencies and be at any school or academy in Norfolk within 2 hours and must provide warranties on their parts and labour. Suppliers awarded work from this Framework Agreement must provide a 25 year warranty on cabling and the manufacturer's warranty on other products. Please note that there is no guarantee of work. Additional information: The value indicated is an estimate of the work that may be awarded over the whole life term of the framework agreement and contracts awarded from it.
