## Summary

The procurement process involves the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (Utilities), which is based in Glasgow, UK. The tender titled "Maintenance of Airwave fibre" is categorised under services and is currently in the award stage. The contract, which is valued at £159,397, was signed on 28th June 2019, following an open procurement method where only one bid was received, indicating a completed process. The work will be carried out at the SPT Broomloan Depot in Glasgow, and suppliers interested in this category of maintenance are encouraged to monitor similar opportunities.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in telecommunications and vital infrastructure maintenance, particularly those with experience in fibre optic systems and emergency response communications. The process suggests a niche requirement for sustained technical knowledge, similar to that demonstrated by the awarded supplier, Telent. As the sector experiences modernization, there is potential for growth for businesses that can offer specialized skills and reliable service continuity in public transport communications.

## Notice

The fibre cable is essential for the provision of the Airwave emergency service communications system within the Subway and forms part of the safety case for the operation of the Subway. Telent are the only supplier who currently that has the technical knowledge and experience of the system to ensure the continuity required during this phase of Subway modernisation.
