Description

The scope of the contract encompasses unified comms (UC) services which provide the telecommunications network (WAN, LAN and WiFi) across all offices and depots

Total Quantity or Scope

NGN have re-tendered WAN/LAN services and it is anticipated that a new contract will commence from the implementation complete date (around February 2023). NGN need additional time to migrate away from Vodafone's circuits, so this contract extension will allow for that. This contract is for unified comms (UC) services which provide the telecommunications network (WAN, LAN and WiFi) across all of NGN's offices and depots. This is an extension of the existing contract with Vodafone. A VEAT was issued on 04/02/2021 to cover the extension until 07/03/2022 and a further VEAT was to cover 08/03/2022 - 07/03/2023 which this award notice refers to.

Indicators

Legal Justification

This award notice is for the extension of the existing contract with Vodafone. NGN have re tendered this contract and are awarded a new contract in March 2022. This extension is required to migrate away from the existing provider and their circuits as this will be a complex migration. NGN will run two parallel services until such time Vodafone circuits are ceased.
