This project falls under the services category, specifically Internet network services, and targets areas within Newton Abbot, Teignmouth, and Dawlish, located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The tender period is active and is set to close on 18 November 2019. Following the contract start date of 31 January 2020, the contract will continue for a decade, concluding on 31 January 2030. The procurement method applied here is an open procedure, encouraging broad participation from interested parties. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in telecommunications, IT infrastructure, or service design and delivery. Companies that can offer innovative wireless solutions, particularly those adept in Smart City and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, would find this contract well-suited for their capabilities. The engagement with local supplier markets is encouraged, and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are invited to participate, thereby promoting economic growth and development within the Teignbridge area. ## Notice The Authority (Teignbridge District Council) is seeking to award a Service Concession Contract for the design, plan, implementation, operation and support of a wireless network, consisting of free public Wi-Fi, Smart City/Internet of Things (IoT) services, small cell deployments and an online tourist information application for the town centre areas of Newton Abbot, Teignmouth and Dawlish. The Concessionaire will be authorised to use either Teignbridge District Council or Devon County Council owned assets, including street furniture, street lighting, CCTV columns and property. It is envisaged that the core coverage will be in high footfall areas within the town centre areas, including major tourist destinations and the main retail areas, however the service is not prescriptive to these areas and the Authority would welcome proposals to extend coverage into other areas of the towns. The Authority is seeking engagement with the market to create a wireless network that helps deliver against the Teignbridge District Council 'Going to Town' and 'Investing in Prosperity' super-projects outlined in the 2016-2025 Ten Year Strategy. This project also features within the Economic Development Plan 2018-23.
