Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Dyfed Powys procured network device hardware and software support services. The requirement covers support for network devices used by the organisation, combining hardware support with software and related IT support. Delivery is in Wales. This is a public-sector technology support requirement for suppliers serving the operational needs of a police and crime commissioner. Businesses specialising in network infrastructure support, device maintenance, software support and associated IT services are the relevant market. The procurement is categorised as services rather than goods or works, although the scope includes both hardware and software support for network equipment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 6 July 2026 to CDW Limited. The awarded value is £76,416, and the contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The tender submission deadline was 8 June 2026 at 2pm. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The contract was awarded as a single requirement to CDW Limited. The opportunity was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active and the contract period is fixed for two years.

For suppliers that did not win, this award confirms demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Dyfed Powys for structured support of network devices and their associated software. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need established capability in network infrastructure support, hardware maintenance and software support, with the capacity to provide a dependable service across Wales. Access to the relevant framework route would be important, since this purchase was made as a framework call-off rather than through an open competition. The selected supplier was a large IT services business, indicating that the buyer values suppliers able to combine technical support across hardware and software with the organisational capacity to serve a public-sector customer.
