Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office has successfully completed a public procurement process for the supply of Memory Modules, classified under computer equipment and supplies (CPV: 30200000). This procurement falls under the industry category of goods and took place in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement was carried out via a competitive quotation process with limited procurement methodology, specifically designed for opportunities below the threshold. The contract, valued at £15,552 GBP, ran from 30th July 2024 to 15th August 2024, with the tender period concluding on 16th July 2024. The entire process is now in the award stage, highlighting key dates such as the award and publication date of 12th August 2024.

This tender presents critical growth opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), given its competitive but below-threshold nature, which favours smaller entities. The procurement process culminated in a contract awarded to COMPUTACENTER (UK) LTD, a large-scale supplier. Small businesses specialising in computer equipment and supplies, particularly those based in or capable of delivering to the South West region, would find such tenders highly beneficial. Participating in similar procurement processes could bolster their market presence and enable them to establish valuable partnerships with prominent public sector organisations like the Met Office.
