Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process involves the British Business Bank Plc, a development bank wholly owned by the UK Government, seeking to procure IT Hardware for its offices in Sheffield and London. This procurement falls under the industry category of Hardware and is classified as goods. The contracting authority utilised the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Lot 2 Hardware framework. The process has progressed to the award stage, with a contract value of £50,000. The tender period concluded on 31 May 2026, followed by the awarding of the contract on 1 June 2026. The contract period spans from 15 June 2026 to 14 June 2028, focusing on the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a robust opportunity for growth, particularly appealing to businesses involved in IT hardware supply with a capacity to service multiple locations across the UK. While it may not be explicitly targeted towards SMEs, the tender is open to VCSE (Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises), presenting a significant opportunity for these groups to engage with government procurement. Large-scale suppliers with experience in delivering hardware solutions, like Cdw Ltd, the awarded supplier, may find such contracts suitable to expand their service portfolio within the public sector.
