Summary of the contracting process

Sellafield Ltd, a buyer based in Warrington, has completed the tender process for the "DD9400 120TB Upgrade" to their existing storage capacity. The procurement, classified under the software package and information systems category (CPV code 48000000), was executed through a selective method as a call-off from an existing framework. The contract, valued at £107,764.99, covers the supply of goods, including hard-disk drives (CPV code 30233132), with a delivery region in the North West, United Kingdom. Key dates include the tender period ending on 15th August 2025, the award date on 2nd September 2025, and the contract timeline from 30th September 2025 to 29th August 2028, indicating the procurement stage is in the Award phase.

This tender opens opportunities for businesses specialising in IT storage solutions and related software services to explore future collaborations with organisations like Sellafield Ltd. Although the current contract was awarded to DELL Corporation Limited, other companies in the IT and software sectors could position themselves for similar opportunities by forming part of framework agreements or by pursuing contracts in regions with a strong emphasis on technological upgrades. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) were not the focal point for this particular tender, however, businesses in similar sectors should consider aligning with procurement frameworks to gain access to large-scale supply opportunities.
