To seek approval for the procurement of mobile
voice and data services.
The Authority awards the contract for Mobile
Voice & Data to Virgin Media Business for a 36 month period
commencing October 2021.
Following a desktop evaluation of service
offers available on the Crown Commercial Services Framework RM3808
Network Services, Lot 6 we are able to Direct Award to our chosen
supplier.
It was decided that the most economically advantageous offer was
the one from our existing supplier, Virgin Media Business.
Alternative options were to extend existing
agreement which was deemed not a compliant option. Further
competition via the Crown Commercial Services Framework RM3808
Network Services, Lot 6 could have been an option if Direct Award
was not viable.
