This contract, valued at £317,000, will run from 1st August 2026 to 31st July 2027. The procurement falls within the goods category and adheres to the "Portable computers" CPV classification. This further competition was organised under the CPC ICT Hardware & Peripherals Equipment framework, with the contract being awarded to KRCS Group Ltd. Delivery locations include the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in portable computing technology and those capable of fulfilling large-scale orders across diverse locations. While this particular contract is awarded to KRCS Group Ltd, similar procurement opportunities may benefit businesses capable of offering competitive prices, excellent product support, and wide distribution capabilities. Those businesses not classified as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find themselves better positioned to compete in similar future tenders, given the scale and scope associated with Capital City College Group's procurement needs.
