Summary of the contracting process

The University of Birmingham has completed a tender for the procurement of Aruba wired and wireless network equipment, with a total contract value of £62,582.89. This procurement, classified under local area network services (CPV code 72710000), took place in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The tender was initiated under a limited procurement method with competitive quotation, and while the tender period ended on 5th October 2018, the contract commenced on 11th October 2018 and is set to run until 10th October 2023.
