Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "RFQ - RA358780 Summer laptops" was managed by Bradford College, located in Bradford, United Kingdom. The contracting process falls under the industry category of office and computing machinery, specifically focusing on ICT hardware and peripherals. The procurement was completed as of 30th June 2026, with the award phase being concluded. This contract was facilitated through a selective tendering process, specifically a call-off from an existing framework agreement. The contract period is set from 1st July 2026 to 31st August 2026, and the procurement was suitable for SMEs, but not for VCSEs, suggesting a focus on smaller enterprises for goods delivery across various locations including the United Kingdom and international territories.

This tender offers significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs like VeryPC Ltd, which was awarded the contract with a value of £192,758.40. The procurement being selective in nature, relying on a framework agreement, creates an environment where businesses with established credentials in ICT hardware and peripheral solutions can thrive. The international scope of the delivery addresses, including locations such as the Channel Islands and the British Overseas Territories, broadens the potential market reach for businesses involved. Companies engaged in supplying office and computing machines are ideally positioned to benefit from such contracts, allowing them to enhance their portfolio and potentially expand their client base and geographical market coverage.
