## Summary

The public procurement process led by The Police & Crime Commissioner for Sussex involved the awarding of a contract for "BT Connectivity - Legacy PSTN Lines" to BT LIMITED. This service contract, focused on legacy PSTN line connectivity, falls under the information technology services industry category and covers the region within the United Kingdom. The procurement process used a direct method described as "below threshold - without competition," indicating a direct award within a closed framework agreement. The process reached the completion stage, with the contract signed and active from 12th June 2026, running until 31st May 2027, with a total gross value of £60,000.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in information technology services, particularly those with capabilities in telecommunications and connectivity solutions. Despite being a direct award and thus less competitive in nature, similar tenders offer business growth potential to companies that can provide robust, legacy infrastructure support. Large-scale providers, akin to BT LIMITED, would be well-placed to bid for such contracts due to their resources and market presence. Nonetheless, smaller firms with niche expertise should monitor public authority needs to position themselves for future opportunities through framework agreements or similar procurement channels.
