What is being bought

DMSL managed a tender on behalf of the mobile network operators (EE, Telefonica, Three and Vodafone, collectively the "Contracting Organisations") to appoint suppliers who are able to provide a managed service to deliver mobile telecoms base station site services. Each of the Contracting Organisations is a signatory to the Managed Solution framework. Neither DMSL nor the Contracting Organisations are contracting authorities. This tender is being conducted voluntarily under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("PCR") as call offs awarded under the Managed Solution framework will be contracts subsidised by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport within the meaning of Regulation 13 of the PCR. The Managed Solution framework may be used by each of the Contracting Organisations and each of their Build companies: Cornerstone Telecommunications Infrastructure Limited (CTIL) and Mobile Broadband Network Limited (MBNL) and any affiliates of the Contracting Organisations or their Build companies.

Lot details

Lot 1

DMSL is managing a tender on behalf of the mobile network operators (EE, Telefonica, Three and Vodafone, collectively the "Contracting Organisations") to appoint suppliers who are able to provide a managed service to deliver mobile telecoms base station site services along with the operation and maintenance of selected equipment. Each of the Contracting Organisations is a signatory to the Managed Solution framework. These sites are part of the Shared Rural Network (SRN) which consists of circa 300 new telecoms mast base station sites in rural and remote locations across the UK. The sites are planned to be delivered either through this Managed Solution framework or through a separate framework for acquisition, design and build services (the procurement for which is being run in parallel), or a combination of both frameworks. These sites will enable the Contracting Organisations, as part of the SRN programme, to fulfil their Ofcom Spectrum licence obligations by giving greater 4G mobile network geographic coverage in the UK. Under the Managed Solution framework, the Contracting Organisations intend to procure a number of services and activities that allow for provision of new telecommunications infrastructure that can provide mobile telephony services in remote and rural areas. The scope of this requirement is a managed service that includes acquisition, design, build and operations and maintenance of the passive infrastructure in locations nominated by the Contracting Organisations. Supplier ownership of passive infrastructure, for example towers, compounds, fencing and power systems is included. For clarity, supply of the radio access equipment and cabinets is outside the scope of this procurement and will be supplied by or through the Contracting Organisations.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 32. The category anchor is Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment (32000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 322,0364 median · 34.3 average (745 of 2,036 with a bid count)3.9 average (860 of 2,036 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

Each of the Contracting Organisations will be a signatory to the Managed Solution framework.\nThese sites are part of the Shared Rural Network (SRN) which consists of circa 300 new telecoms mast base station sites in rural and remote locations across the UK.  The sites are planned to be delivered either through this Managed Solution framework or through a separate framework for acquisition, design and build services (the procurement for which is being run in parallel), or a combination of both frameworks.\nThese sites will enable the Contracting Organisations, as part of the SRN programme, to fulfil their Ofcom Spectrum licence obligations by giving greater mobile network coverage in the UK.\nUnder the Managed Solution framework, the Contracting Organisations intend to procure a number of services and activities that allow for provision of new telecommunications infrastructure that can provide mobile telephony services in remote and rural areas.\nThe scope of this requirement is a managed service that includes acquisition, design, build and operations and maintenance of the passive infrastructure in locations nominated by the Contracting Organisations.  Supplier ownership of passive infrastructure, for example towers, compounds, fencing and power systems is included.\nFor clarity, supply of the radio access equipment and cabinets will be outside the scope of this procurement and will be supplied by or through the Contracting Organisations.",

If this is done there may be a delay in receiving access to the procurement documents.\nApplicants will be required to agree to the Non-Disclosure Agreement and Conflict of Interest Declaration before being granted access to the procurement documents.\nThe procurement will be run as an Open procedure to select 8 suppliers for the Managed Solution framework.\nAll selection criteria will be stated in the procurement documents.\nVariant bids will not be accepted.\nTenders will need to be open for acceptance for 12 months from time and date of submission.\nDMSL considers that this Managed Solution framework may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises. Any selection of suppliers will be based solely on the criteria set out for this Managed Solution framework.\nThe Contracting Organisations wish to award contracts to suppliers who will take sole responsibility for delivery of the services to be provided under this Managed Solution framework.  For clarity, suppliers may use sub-contractors to deliver the services.\nParent company guarantees may be required at DMSL and the Contracting Organisations discretion. Further details will be provided in the procurement documents.\nNeither DMSL nor the Contracting Organisations will accept multiple applications for this procurement from the same entity/economic operator.\nThe term of the Managed Solution framework is 65 months with an option to extend once for a further 24 months.
