## Summary

Dundee and Angus College procured replacement inter-site connectivity for its wide area network, including managed transition services under Lot 1 of the JISC Telecommunications Framework. The requirement concerns telecommunications network connectivity between the college’s sites, with delivery centred on Kingsway Campus, Old Glamis Road, Dundee. The procurement is classified under CPV 32412100, covering telecommunications network services. The college acted as the buying organisation and as a central purchasing body. The requirement was awarded to Neos Networks Ltd, indicating a need for a network provider able to manage the transition from existing arrangements to replacement wide area connectivity for an education-sector customer in Dundee and Angus.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Neos Networks Ltd through a direct award to the top-ranked supplier under Lot 1 of the JISC Telecommunications Framework. It is described as using the open procedure, although the award route is stated as a framework direct award. The single lot was completed following one electronic bid, with no SME bids recorded. The contract is valued at £113,000 excluding any unreported tax, and was signed on 9 September 2026. The contract is active. The award was evaluated on the supplier’s ranking within the framework. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The contracting authority was Dundee and Angus College, and the successful supplier was Neos Networks Ltd.

This award demonstrates demand from Dundee and Angus College for managed wide area network replacement and inter-site connectivity, with transition management forming part of the requirement. Suppliers competing for similar work from this buyer would need credible telecommunications network capability, experience of replacing or migrating existing connectivity, and the operational capacity to maintain service continuity across college sites. Familiarity with public-sector framework purchasing, particularly the JISC Telecommunications Framework and its managed transition services route, would be commercially important. The result also shows that the buyer used a ranked framework route rather than a broad multi-supplier competition, so suppliers would need to secure an appropriate framework position and demonstrate a strong offering against the framework’s evaluation requirements.
