Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, acting for itself and the Chief Constable of North Yorkshire Police, procured computer equipment and supplies for delivery in Yorkshire and the Humber. The requirement covers ICT capital hardware, including IT hardware, networking and security equipment, together with commercially available off-the-shelf software. This is a goods procurement supporting the organisations’ technology infrastructure and operational needs. Businesses relevant to this requirement include suppliers able to provide a broad range of enterprise IT equipment and associated software, with capability to support public-sector organisations across the Yorkshire area. The scope is centred on supplying technology products rather than delivering consultancy, construction or general managed services.

This procurement has been completed through a selective further competition and call-off from the West Yorkshire Combined Authority Framework for IT Hardware, Networking and Security Equipment and commercially available off-the-shelf Software. The tender deadline was 7 July 2025 at 13:00. The contract was awarded to SOFTCAT PLC on 14 August 2025 for £583,319.45 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 18 August 2025 to 17 August 2028. The award was active when recorded. Evaluation was conducted within the framework call-off process; the published data does not set out separate quality or price weightings. This outcome identifies Softcat as the selected supplier for the complete requirement.

The award demonstrates substantial demand from this combined authority and North Yorkshire Police for coordinated supply of enterprise ICT products across hardware, networking, security and off-the-shelf software. A credible future competitor would need a wide and dependable product portfolio, strong relationships with major technology manufacturers and distributors, and the capacity to source, configure and deliver varied equipment at public-sector scale. Experience supporting policing or other public bodies would help demonstrate understanding of operational resilience, security and procurement compliance. Suppliers should also be able to manage a framework call-off efficiently, provide accurate product advice, maintain supply continuity and meet the technical requirements for network and security equipment. The requirement is best suited to established technology resellers or similarly capable enterprise IT suppliers.
