Summary of the contracting process

The Construction Industry Training Board, located in Peterborough, UK, recently completed a procurement process titled "GB-Peterborough: 55 Laptop requirement", which falls under the "Computer equipment and supplies" industry category. The procurement process, which involved the purchase of 55 laptops, has reached the award stage.
