Requirements
- Supplier must be on the SBS Digital Solutions 2 Framework approved supplier list
- Supply and installation of network infrastructure equipment
- Provision of associated networking services
- Network solution must be reliable, secure, and high-performing

- Provide associated services to support the network installation

How to Read This Tender
- 1This is a 'mini-competition' — it means only suppliers already approved on the SBS Digital Solutions 2 Framework can bid, so check you're registered there first
- 2The notice is intentionally brief; the real technical details, specifications, timescales, and budget will be in the full tender documents — request these immediately
- 3Watch for whether 'supply only' or 'supply and install' is required — this affects your resource planning and costs
- 4Look for the network scope: is this for one building, multiple sites, or an enterprise-wide rollout? This determines scale and complexity
- 5Check payment terms and project timeline — network installation can face delays; ensure you understand risk allocation and milestone payments
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you're not on the SBS Digital Solutions 2 Framework, you cannot bid directly — but you could partner with a Framework supplier as a subcontractor, which may be faster than joining the Framework yourself
- Network supply-and-install often involves both hardware (equipment) and services (labour, testing, commissioning) — clarify which parts you'll deliver and where subcontracting makes sense
- Social value scoring may apply in public sector tenders — consider commitments like apprenticeship placements, local supply chains, or cyber security training to strengthen your bid
