Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire purchased 87 laptop devices for use by Lincolnshire Police’s Digital and Data Directorate. This is a goods procurement for computer equipment and supplies, with delivery in Lincoln. The requirement is for standard business laptop hardware to support the police force’s digital and data functions. The buying organisation is the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire, based at Deepdale Lane, Lincoln. The opportunity is therefore relevant to laptop manufacturers, authorised resellers, catalogue suppliers and IT distributors able to provide business-grade portable computers for a public-sector operational environment and deliver them to Lincoln.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure described as a catalogue purchase. Bids closed on 5 August 2026, and the contract was awarded to Galtec Solutions Ltd on 7 August 2026. The awarded value is £104,313 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 10 August 2026 to 31 August 2026. Galtec Solutions Ltd is the sole named supplier, and the award is active. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published requirement covered 87 laptops for the police’s Digital and Data Directorate, with the procurement evaluated through the catalogue-purchase route.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined requirement from Lincolnshire Police for a batch purchase of business laptops supporting digital and data operations. A credible competitor for similar work would need to source and supply 87 compatible laptop devices, manage catalogue-based purchasing, and fulfil a concentrated public-sector hardware order within a short delivery window. The procurement was suitable for SMEs, so smaller IT resellers and distributors can be commercially relevant alongside larger suppliers if they can demonstrate dependable device supply, accurate catalogue descriptions and coordinated delivery. Laptop manufacturers, authorised channel partners and business technology distributors serving police or other public-sector organisations are the closest fit.
