Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process by UK Shared Business Services Limited has concluded with an award notice for tender DDaT26277 focused on hardware maintenance and software support under the Servers, Storage and Solutions National Agreement (SSSNA). The procurement, conducted through a selective method with a call-off from a framework agreement, was aimed at securing IT services involving servers with a contract value of £31,636.92. The process reached the award stage on 25th June 2026, with the resultant contract period spanning from 26th June 2026 to 26th December 2026. The procurement pertains to the IT industry category and is situated in the United Kingdom.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses capable of providing hardware maintenance and software support solutions, especially those already engaged in similar framework agreements. Large organisations, like CDW Ltd, who was the successful supplier, are well-positioned to benefit from such contracts, as the size and scope often require substantial resources and existing framework access. Businesses in the information technology sector with a focus on servers and IT services could view participation in similar frameworks as a pathway to secure advantageous contracts and broaden their client base.
