Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council has concluded a public procurement process for the provision of Cisco support and maintenance, along with hardware purchase. This procurement falls under the industry category of "Computer equipment and supplies" and was conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement, which is a selective procurement method. The procurement process moved from the tender stage to awarding the contract to CDW LTD, a large-scale company. The tender was valued at £95,000 GBP and targeted services within the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically Chichester. The contract period runs from 16 May 2026 to 15 May 2027, with the award made active as of 8 May 2026.

This procurement offers growth opportunities, particularly for companies with expertise in IT support services, specifically those familiar with Cisco products. However, the suitability criteria indicate that it was not intended for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses with the capacity to deliver large-scale IT maintenance and support solutions and those capable of fulfilling government procurement requirements may find such opportunities profitable. While this specific contract is complete, similar opportunities may arise for similar providers to engage in governmental contracts in the future.
