Summary of the contracting process

Oxford City Council, a prominent local authority, recently completed the award stage of a tender process concerning the procurement of 101 laptops. This procurement falls under the goods category and specifically targets the portable computers industry. The procurement process employed a selective method, using a restricted procedure. This contract is set within a broad geographical scope that includes significant regions such as the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories, and other areas within Europe. The key events of this procurement included a tender period ending on 17th December 2025, and the award was confirmed on 6th January 2026. The contract period extends from 6th January 2026 to 6th February 2026.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacture and supply of portable computing equipment, with a specific demand for laptops. Firms that cater to the public sector and have experience with selective procurement processes, particularly those familiar with the intricacies of a restricted procedure, would be well-suited to engage in this type of procurement. Although this specific contract was awarded to Pure Data Solutions Limited, local suppliers and those with a presence in the United Kingdom and Europe could significantly benefit from engaging in future similar tenders. By positioning themselves strategically, businesses can take advantage of such opportunities to expand their market reach and enhance their clientele within public sector procurement.
