## Summary

The University of the West of England is procuring shared-business telephone network services for its BT Circuit SHUK613360 requirement. The service is associated with the university’s operations in Bristol and is categorised as telecommunications network services. The buying organisation is the University of the West of England, a public-sector higher education institution. The selected supplier is British Telecommunications Limited, indicating a requirement for an established communications provider able to deliver and support a business telephone circuit for a university customer. The procurement covers one service requirement rather than a set of separately described goods or works, with delivery associated with the university’s operating area.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award is active and was made to British Telecommunications Limited. The contract was signed on 27 August 2026 and runs from 28 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £29,221.76 excluding VAT, or £35,066.11 including VAT. The tender and its single lot are marked complete, while the contract remains active. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than an open tender or competitive selection process. The requirement is for shared-business telephone network services under the BT Circuit SHUK613360 title.

This award demonstrates a university requirement for a managed shared-business telephone network service delivered through a dedicated business circuit. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need telecommunications network capability, the operational capacity to support a university-scale customer throughout a contract period, and the infrastructure and service management needed to maintain reliable business voice connectivity. The award also shows that the buyer has used a below-threshold direct-award route without competition, so suppliers seeking comparable work should understand the buyer’s low-value procurement arrangements and be able to present a clear, compliant service proposition. Experience delivering business telephone network services to organisations with complex operational needs would strengthen a supplier’s position when this requirement is next reviewed.
