Summary of the contracting process

The Equality and Human Rights Commission initiated a procurement process for the provision of offsite storage services for hardcopy, non-current records and data backup tapes under the Crown Commercial Services RM3781 framework specifically within the Records Information Management Services category. The process followed a selective call-off from a framework agreement and covered delivery regions including the North West, London, Scotland, and Wales, with the contract being awarded on 17th September 2019. The contract commenced on 1st November 2019 and will run until 30th April 2025, with an option for two additional twelve-month extensions based on operational needs. The awarded value of the contract is £177,500.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in data storage, archiving, and records management services, especially those operating within the framework of the Crown Commercial Services RM3781. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts, which demand reliable, scalable storage solutions for large volumes of data across multiple UK locations. Service providers with robust capabilities in managing both physical documents and digital backup solutions stand to benefit significantly from such government contracts. The procurement process and contract execution by a reputable entity like the Equality and Human Rights Commission provide a stable and prestigious business opportunity.
