## Summary

Fife Council procured network connections, described as a communications network service. The requirement is for the provision of network connections in line with the tender documentation. The procurement is relevant to telecommunications and network service providers able to supply the connections required by the council. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is also listed among the parties to the contracting process, but Fife Council is the buyer for this requirement.

The procurement has been awarded to Jisc, and the contract is active. The council used a direct award to a single supplier without competition; one bid was recorded. The tender period began on 8 January 2026. The award value is £312,982.94 for the full contract period, including extensions. The arrangement is for an initial three years, with extensions of two years and then one year. The first-year cost is stated to be £12,982.94 higher than subsequent years, which are consistent. A modification may be made if pricing changes at an extension stage.

This award provides evidence that Fife Council buys network connections as a defined service, and that the requirement can be awarded to a single supplier. A supplier seeking to compete if this requirement returns to market would need to demonstrate that it can provide the network connections required by the council and support a multi-year service arrangement, including extensions. The selected supplier was Jisc, and one bid was recorded. The purchase is therefore relevant to providers with the operational ability to deliver network connectivity for a public-sector customer. The award does not set out specific technical standards, accreditations or capacity thresholds, so these should not be assumed to be established requirements.
