About

Bristol City Council awarded a contract to British Telecommunications plc for the provision of approximately 200 traditional telephony circuits utilizing the Public Switched Telephony Network (PSTN) over copper cabling.

The contract, valued at £207,712, covers the period from July 2023 to December 2025.

The services are subject to stop-sell due to the upcoming PSTN withdrawal by December 2025, and the Council is migrating systems to GSM or other suitable technologies.

The procurement was conducted under PCR 2015 via a process of competition absent for technical reasons.
