In plain English
Bradford Council wants to appoint a contractor to install structured data and voice cabling (the wiring that carries computer networks, phones and fibre connections) across its buildings. The work covers its existing copper and fibre network and future needs, at sites across the Bradford district and beyond. The estimated contract value is £500,000.
What the buyer wants
• Structured data and voice cabling installation in any Council building, including Bingley, Ilkley, Keighley, Shipley and sites outside the district • Fixed rate pricing for Basic Works, carried out Monday to Friday during normal working hours • Experience working in offices, schools, leisure centres, museums and libraries, with both suspended and solid ceiling types
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not set out specific qualifications, turnover or insurance requirements, but the £500,000 value, the demand for a 'suitably experienced and qualified' provider with proven work across varied public building types, and the need for fixed rate pricing across a wide geographic area could rule out smaller firms without a track record of large public sector installations.
