Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council has awarded a contract for the replacement of Storage Area Networks (SAN) to Proact IT UK Limited. The procurement process, classified under the industry category of network servers (CPV code 48821000) and related categories, involves the supply and installation of two SANs, one for primary production use and another for offsite mirroring and data vaulting. The contract, valued at £151,402.63, will span an initial period of five years beginning on 1 October 2024, with the possibility of two additional 12-month extensions, concluding by 30 September 2029. The procurement method utilised was a restricted procedure, and key dates included the end of the tender period on 12 August 2024 and the award date of 5 September 2024.

This tender offers significant opportunities for growth to businesses specialising in network and computer servers, particularly those classified as small and medium enterprises (SMEs). With a substantial contract value and a multi-year engagement, companies capable of providing robust and scalable SAN solutions will find this an attractive opportunity. The restricted procedure means that only pre-qualified suppliers could participate, ensuring a competitive yet fair playing field. Businesses with expertise in data storage and network infrastructure will be well-suited for such tenders, especially those that can offer reliable and efficient solutions to meet the council's need for secure and scalable data management.
