Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe Bank of England is procuring network services and goods over an initial 4-year term, with the option to extend for a further 2+2+2 years. The estimated total value across all contracts is £20m. Up to four suppliers will be contracted, with a minimum of two different suppliers, so that each location has redundant, independent connectivity unaffected by a single provider's failure. Services are split into four lots: Lots 1 and 2 cover Wide Area Network (WAN) connectivity between the Bank's offices and data centres, and Lots 3 and 4 cover high-capacity Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) for the same sites. The same supplier cannot serve both lots within a pair. Delivery is in the UK, with a minimum of two contracts awarded by Q3 2027.
