## Summary

The Procurement for Housing organisation is initiating a planned tender for a Telecommunications & Associated Services Framework Agreement, valued at £35,000,000. This procurement falls within the services category, specifically focusing on telecommunications services. The framework encompasses three lots: Network Communications, Mobile Communications, and Off Premise Hosted Telephony, and is set to replace the current agreement expiring in September 2021. Interested parties can anticipate future notices on this procurement process, with the next key date projected for 2nd June 2021. The services will be delivered across the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in telecommunications and associated services. Companies that provide solutions in network communications, mobile technologies, consultancy services, and installation of telecommunications infrastructure would be particularly well-positioned to compete for contracts under this framework. As multiple suppliers are sought for the various lots, this procurement offers a chance for both established firms and emerging enterprises to engage in a substantial public sector project, potentially leading to long-term partnerships with public authorities.

## Notice
