Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions procured a call-off contract for Lenovo laptop devices for its operations. The requirement covers the supply and delivery of laptop computers, with the procurement classified under CPV 30213300, desktop computers. Delivery is associated with Manchester, at the department’s address in St Peter’s Square, and the wider United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the Department for Work and Pensions. This is a technology hardware requirement rather than a software, support or consultancy service, so it is most relevant to suppliers with access to Lenovo business laptops and the capability to fulfil government-scale equipment orders across the UK.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to CDW Limited UK on 1 September 2026. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 6 September 2027. The awarded value is £20,000,000, with the procurement’s stated estimated range running from £4,249,762 to £20,000,000. The tender submission deadline was 7 August 2026 at 12:00. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and unsuitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active and covers the Lenovo laptop device requirement for the Department for Work and Pensions.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates substantial recurring demand from the Department for Work and Pensions for Lenovo laptop hardware through a framework call-off route. Credible competitors will need established manufacturer or distribution relationships, the ability to source and supply genuine Lenovo business devices, and sufficient operational capacity to manage large public-sector orders. They should also be able to provide dependable UK-wide logistics, accurate asset and order management, and consistent delivery against government purchasing requirements. SMEs were considered suitable, so a smaller specialist reseller or technology distributor may be well placed if it can demonstrate framework access, reliable fulfilment, competitive pricing and the capacity to support a department-wide device programme.
