## Summary

The ESN - Acquire, Design and Build Infrastructure Framework (ADB) has been awarded under an open procurement process managed by the ESN eSourcing Portal. The contract, valued at £200 million, aims to meet infrastructure needs for emergency services across the UK, including products and services related to construction and telecommunications. The contract period spans from 27 June 2016 to 26 June 2020, and the procurement stage is complete. Notably, the delivery addresses encompass various locations, including the UK, British Overseas Territories, and Europe. The award notice was published on 16 December 2016, but it is primarily for informational purposes regarding future competition opportunities among suppliers.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for construction and telecommunications firms, particularly those capable of large-scale projects and infrastructure development. Businesses specialising in passive infrastructure design, radio and transmission facilities, and construction management services would be highly suited to compete in any subsequent competitions under this framework. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given their potential to collaborate with larger contractors in delivering these essential services across public safety sectors, including the Police, Fire, and Ambulance services.
