Summary of the contracting process

Salford City Council procured the supply of IT equipment, classified primarily as computer screens and consoles, with headphones as an additional requirement. This is a goods procurement rather than a services or works contract. The equipment was intended for delivery in the Salford area, at postcode M27 5AW. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement was handled as a call-off from an existing framework agreement. The scope is therefore focused on supplying standard workplace or operational IT hardware rather than delivering an installation, managed service or broader technology transformation project. Businesses specialising in computer display equipment, consoles, audio peripherals and associated public-sector supply arrangements would find the requirement most relevant.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Salford City Council used a selective procedure to call off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 9 July 2026 at 4pm. The contract was awarded on 16 July 2026 to Kingsfield Computer Products Ltd for £134,347 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period ran from 16 July 2026 to 16 July 2026, so the published period covers a single day. The overall estimated procurement value was also £134,347. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off route. The award is recorded as active and the tender as complete.

This award demonstrates demand from Salford City Council for competitively sourced computer screens, consoles and headphones through an established framework route. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need reliable access to mainstream IT hardware, secure purchasing and distribution arrangements, and the capacity to fulfil a sizeable equipment order against council specifications. Experience supplying public-sector organisations would help with framework compliance, documentation, pricing and delivery controls. Relevant capability includes advising on compatible display and audio equipment, maintaining consistent product availability, handling order-level administration and providing traceable deliveries. The successful supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist distributor can be credible for this type of requirement when it has the necessary catalogue, supply-chain resilience and framework access.
