Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC), represented by LGSS, is conducting a procurement process for server hardware intended for the Refresh of its virtual environment under the CCS Technology Products 2 Framework. This tender is classified under the goods category (CPV Code: 30200000 - Computer equipment and supplies). The procurement method employed is an open procedure, with the tender period having closed on 23 December 2019. The total estimated value of the contract is £200,000, with a minimum threshold of £180,000. The contract period is set to commence from 2 January 2020 and is scheduled to conclude on 1 January 2021. The delivery location is in the East of England, specifically at the CCC Data Centre in Cambridge.

This opportunity presents significant potential for SMEs with capabilities in providing server hardware, particularly those specialising in HP products, as CCC exclusively utilises HP Server hardware in its datacentre. Successful bidders will be responsible for liaising closely with CCC's Contract Manager throughout the process. Given the focus on the replacement and expansion of existing server blades rather than the addition of further chassis, businesses well-versed in delivering technical solutions and who understand the requirements of public sector contracts would be ideally suited to compete for this tender.
