Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Merton procured a laptop refresh, covering the supply of portable computers (CPV 30213100) as goods. The requirement is intended to replace or renew the organisation’s laptop equipment. The buying organisation is based at Civic Centre, London Road, Morden, England. Delivery locations are listed across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories, Europe and the rest of the world. This points to a requirement for a supplier able to provide portable computers and support delivery across a wide geographical area, rather than a locally confined supply. The procurement is for equipment supply rather than construction, consultancy or other services.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open procedure. The tender closed on 18 June 2026 at 12:00. The estimated procurement value was £2,500,000. The contract period runs from 11 August 2026 to 9 August 2030, while the awarded contract with XMA Limited runs from 12 August 2026 to 9 August 2030. XMA Limited was awarded the contract on 11 August 2026 for £2,019,967.60. The opportunity was evaluated as a single goods requirement for portable computers. The contracting process is marked complete and the award is active, so this procurement records an established purchasing outcome rather than a current bidding opportunity.

This award demonstrates substantial, multi-year demand from the London Borough of Merton for laptop replacement and refresh programmes. Suppliers considering future work with this buyer would need dependable access to portable computer stock, the operational capacity to fulfil a sizeable equipment requirement, and logistics able to cover the broad delivery geography associated with the contract. The successful supplier, XMA Limited, is recorded as an SME, showing that this scale of supply was delivered by a smaller business rather than only a major corporate provider. Relevant competitors would therefore benefit from demonstrable experience in public-sector equipment supply, reliable fulfilment, and the ability to manage a structured open procurement process.
