## Summary

The WM5G organisation is currently in the planning stage of a tender titled "Telecoms 5G core and associated facilities and services." This procurement, categorised under data network management and support services, aims to enhance the adoption of 5G and related technologies among SMEs in the Coventry and Warwickshire LEP area. The tender process is selective and will involve negotiation, with an end date for submissions set for 13 September 2021. The total budget allocated for this initiative is £400,000, reflecting a commitment to address regional productivity gaps and create skilled job opportunities.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for SMEs, particularly those involved in technology, telecommunications, or facility provision. Businesses that can offer a furnished, multipurpose event space or deliver end-to-end capabilities for 5G, IoT, and Wifi6 applications would be well-suited to compete. By participating in this process, companies can contribute to meaningful advancements in technology adoption while potentially benefiting from increased revenue and network expansion within the Midlands region.

## Notice

Looking beyond March 2022, WM5G will be evolving to support SMEs to adopt the productivity and other benefits of 5G, internet of things and data & AI use cases which it has pioneered. The adoption of these benefits has significant potential to help level-up the Midlands by addressing the productivity gap and creating new skilled jobs. With SMEs accounting for the majority of GVA in many sectors but struggling with a wide variety of technology adoption challenges - especially coming out of the pandemic - this has been recognised as a regional and national priority. To support WM5G to deliver its SME Adoption programme we are running a procurement consisting of two lots: * Lot 1: Provision of primary premises within the Coventry and Warwickshire LEP area and associated services * Lot 2: Access to 5G core, RAN and associated services, such access to ideally be provided to the primary premises.
