What is being bought

Published requirement description

Kingston upon Hull City Council (the Authority)l has advertised this opportunity on behalf of Humber Bridge Board. The Board used the open procedure in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) (PCR 2015) for the purpose of procuring the services described in the tender documentation. The Humber bridge has a number of fibre optic cables in various locations with various access points. It also has a number of control and monitoring systems which have been in place for many years. It is recognised that systems like CCTV, telecoms, plant monitoring, structural health monitoring, security and fire detection could all benefit from a modern and resilient network. HBB have undertaken detailed surveys of the existing assets and produced a specification for upgrading and enhancing an existing fibre network to create a managed ring network.

Why no open competition
The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification

An open procurement to identify a contractor to provide services and works relating to a network fibre upgrade. The services were estimated to be under the threshold for the procurement of services, around £150,000. The Contracting Authority considered that the award without prior publication of a contract notice would have been permitted by the Public Contracts Regulation 2015. As part of the return of the tenders the threshold for services was exceeded. The Contracting Authority is therefore publishing this voluntary transparency notice and observing the standstill period in line with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
