Tender description

The Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme (ESMCP) is a cross-government, multiagency Programme sponsored by The Secretary of State for the Home Department to deliver the Emergency Services Network (ESN). The ESN will deliver integrated critical voice and broadband data services to all three emergency services (3ES) and other users throughout GB (England, Wales and Scotland). These services require a mobile communications network capable of providing the full coverage, resilience, security and public safety functionality required by the 3ES. The ESN will replace those services delivered under current service contract(s). A number of these service contracts operate across the 3ES and other users. The new service contracts began to be awarded during 2015 and service delivery commenced during 2016 and 2017. This Contract Award Notice is for the provision of LTE mobile handheld devices, their accessories and intrinsically safe LTE mobile handheld devices for use on the ESN under a framework agreement that can be used by the police, fire, ambulance and other non-Home Office Police services and other organisations that currently utilise TETRA devices.
