Netherlands – Internet Network Services Procurement

This is a public procurement opportunity for internet connectivity services based on a fiber optic network, managed by Kentalis, utilizing SD-WAN technology. Kentalis aims to consolidate both connectivity and SD-WAN services under a single supplier. The project includes migrating the existing network infrastructure from a VPN-based system to an SD-WAN system. Additionally, Kentalis seeks to optimize bandwidth across all data connections, standardize the network, and achieve significant cost reductions through this initiative. The migration is scheduled from November 1, 2025, to April 30, 2027, with an initial contract period of five years from May 1, 2027, to April 30, 2031. There are options to extend the contract for two additional years from May 1, 2031, to April 30, 2033, and another two years from May 1, 2033, to April 30, 2035. The total potential contract duration is 10 years and 3 months, with an estimated total contract value ranging from €7.13 million to €9.63 million, including VAT.
