## Summary

Leeds City Council is currently conducting a tender for its Full Fibre Programme, aimed at designing and implementing a full fibre gigabit-capable network (FTTP) throughout the Leeds metropolitan district. This initiative will support approximately 1,400 sites and replace the existing WAN connectivity. The tender is classified under the networks industry, with a contract value of £21,100,000. The tender period is set to close on 4th September 2019, with the contract anticipated to commence on 28th January 2020 and last until 27th January 2027, inclusive of an extension option.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for firms specialising in telecommunications and network infrastructure. Companies that design, implement, or manage broadband networks, particularly those offering innovative solutions for wide area network connectivity, will find this tender particularly suitable. Engaging with Leeds City Council on this project may lead to a long-term partnership due to the extensive contract duration and potential for future collaborations within the region.

## Notice

Leeds City Council is going to market for a provider to design and implement a full fibre gigabit capable network (FTTP) to the Council and partner buildings across the Leeds metropolitan district. The fibre infrastructure will give access to circa 1400 sites with a managed service overlay. The infrastructure will be assured to CESG Assurance Scheme (Telecoms) and provide WAN (Wide Area Network) connectivity to replace the Council's existing network. The contracting model will be based on two components, an Indefeasible Right of Use (IRU) for the use of the network fibre elements for 25 years and a services contract for the hardware and managed service overlay with an initial term of 7 years and option to extend by 3 years.
