The brief

The Growth Company (GC) are seeking to appoint a mobile telephony provider that can support our end user mobile hardware requirement, calls, texts, data and associated mobile telephony services.

The successful provider will consistently provide high quality products and services and active account management to provide a seamless communications service delivery across GC and full integration with GC applications and infrastructure including Microsoft 365.

GC's Key Objectives: 1.

Comprehensive Account Management - We require active and engaged account management to ensure our contract is managed effectively and with full visibility and control of costs alongside strategies to manage end user behaviour and out of bundle costs.

We require pooled data and unrestricted or pooled minute and text provision.

3 Zero Touch Fulfilment - Our chosen partner will undertake the configuration, asset tagging (this is device dependent) and maintenance/warranty swap out of our mobile hardware portfolio directly to the sites or end users across the regions we work.

4 Value for Money, Cost Surety and Efficiency - we need to ensure the contract remains good value through the term and the account is actively managed to reduce the risk of excess and unused connections and accounting queries are minimised.
