Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the University of Keele involved the supply of laptops and desktops as part of a call-off agreement under the NHS SBS Tech Devices framework, with a reference of SBS10515. The contract falls under the category of "Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies" and was executed through a selective procurement method specifically utilising a call-off from a framework agreement. The process is now in the award stage, with the contract active since 20th October 2025. The agreement, valued at £350,000, covers delivery to Keele Campus, Newcastle, England (postal code ST5 5BG), and spans from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2026.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for companies in the computing and technology supply industry. The requirement for laptops and desktops under a substantial framework agreement suggests that businesses with capabilities in office and computing machinery, capable of fulfilling large orders efficiently, would be well-suited to compete in such procurement activities. The University of Keele's preference for SMEs indicates an inclination towards smaller enterprises or start-ups aiming to expand their footprint in the public procurement space. For companies positioned to offer competitive pricing and reliable delivery schedules, engaging in such tenders could facilitate significant growth in their business portfolio.
