In plain English

The Scottish Government wants to buy mobile phone call and mobile data (internet) services, with an estimated value of £50 million. The associated classification codes also cover related mobile equipment and network services.

What the buyer wants

• Provide mobile voice (phone call) and mobile data services • Supply related mobile telephone equipment and network services, as indicated by the classification codes • The notice gives no further detail on volumes, locations or service levels

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice sets out no specific qualification criteria, but its £50 million value and national mobile service scope would most likely rule out small businesses that cannot deliver telecoms services at that scale.

Always check the tender documents.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
