Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has completed a procurement process titled "IT Hardware RAF Site Expansion" for supplying IT hardware necessary for the expansion of an RAF site. This procurement, classified under the industry category of "Office and computing machinery, equipment, and supplies except furniture and software packages," was conducted through a competition under the CCS Tepas 2 Framework. The contract, valued at GBP 23,306.41, covers the period from 20 February 2025 to 19 February 2028 with delivery expected in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The tender process started on 18 February 2025, with the award made to Akhter Computers Ltd on 20 February 2025, and the award notice was published on 28 February 2025.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of IT hardware, particularly those that can meet the specialised needs of defence infrastructure improvements. Although this specific tender has been awarded, similar future opportunities could enable businesses to grow their market presence and enhance their portfolios by providing critical technological support to government projects. Businesses with experience in office and computing machinery and a robust framework for delivering high-standard tech equipment will be well-suited to compete in such tenders.
