## Summary

Fife Council renewed its mobile connectivity service for telephony connections used on employees’ work phones. The requirement covers mobile voice and data connectivity, with additional connections able to be added when required. Services are for Fife Council operations in Fife, with the buyer based in Glenrothes. This is a continuing service rather than a one-off supply of devices: the contract concerns employee phone connections, and the number of connections can change over time. The work falls within telecommunications services (CPV 64200000).

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Fife Council awarded the contract to Vodafone through a direct call-off from the Scottish Government’s single-supplier Mobile Voice and Data Services framework. One bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and is valued at £624,000. The published information does not state a contract start date, end date or duration, so the period over which this value applies cannot be established from the available details. The requirement is presented as one lot, with the option to add connections as needed. The framework call-off determined the route to the supplier; no separate evaluation criteria are described.

For suppliers considering similar future work for Fife Council, this award demonstrates demand for an ongoing mobile voice and data service supporting employees’ work phones, with capacity to accommodate changes in connection numbers. A credible provider would need to supply and manage reliable mobile telephony connections and be able to scale them up or down as the council’s needs change. The buyer used a direct call-off from a Scottish Government framework with a single supplier, so access to the relevant framework route was central to winning this requirement; this was not an open competition for providers outside it. Vodafone was the selected supplier, and one bid was recorded. No specific technical standards, accreditations or service-level requirements are stated.

## Notice

This is a renewal of Fife Council's contract with Vodafone for the provision of telephony connections for the work phones of Fife Council employees. Total value is an estimate based on current connections, but is subject to change if connections are added or removed throughout the contract.
