Summary of the contracting process

East Cambridgeshire District Council (ECDC) has completed a procurement process for the replacement of their existing ESXI servers. ECDC sought upgraded hardware to ensure compatibility with their current infrastructure and future needs, specifically requiring servers interoperable with existing HPE DR Servers. The procurement, categorised under Computer equipment and supplies (CPV code: 30200000), was conducted via further competition using the CCS RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Framework Lot 2: Hardware. The contract, valued at £27,291, was awarded on 22 March 2024 to CDW Limited UK, with a provision period from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2029.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in providing computer equipment and hardware support services, particularly those experienced with HPE technologies. SMEs were considered suitable for this competition, suggesting that smaller firms capable of supplying compatible and reliable hardware solutions could successfully compete.
