## Summary

The Redhill Academy Trust, a body governed by public law focusing on education, successfully completed an award process for the supply of internet and cyber security services as of 23rd July 2026. The procurement process involved a limited method, with the contract being awarded to Securus Communications Limited, an SME based in Hants, UKF1 region. This contract, valued at £738,095, was signed on 24th June 2026. The procurement aimed to enhance the school's internet and cyber security infrastructure in preparation for the go-live of the Arbor Education Management System in September 2026. The project falls under the information technology services category, and the improvements are seen as critical to business continuity and system security.

This tender offers significant growth potential for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with capabilities in cyber security and cloud-based solutions for educational institutions. Companies that can deliver robust, scalable internet connectivity solutions and possess a strong track record in collaborating with educational bodies would be well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities. The procurement process, being completed without prior publication of a call for competition, underscores the criticality and urgency of the project, positioning suppliers adept in quick deployment and high-stakes environments as potential beneficiaries in upcoming endeavours.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Supply services internet access and cyber security services. Additional information: This is a 5 year agreement

### Procurement Information

The award is required to support the implementation of the new Education Management System, Arbor, which is scheduled to go live in September 2026. The deployment of Arbor requires significant upgrades to the school's internet connectivity and cyber security infrastructure to ensure compatibility, security, resilience, and uninterrupted access to cloud-based services. Given the critical dependency between the upgraded cyber security services and the successful implementation of Arbor, these enhancements must be implemented as a matter of urgency. Any delay would present a significant risk to business continuity, system security, and the planned go-live date for Arbor in September 2026. Consequently, the procurement is necessary to ensure the school has the required infrastructure and security controls in place ahead of implementation.
