Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process detailed here involves the National Oceanography Centre, which has recently completed an award for the "Provision of AV Maintenance" under the CPV classification of facilities management services for computer systems maintenance. The procurement was conducted as a call-off from the RM6116 Network Services 3 CCS Framework, with a selective method of procurement. The tender was structured for a one-year contract period starting on 6th April 2026 and concluding on 5th April 2027. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the award being made on 30th March 2026 to Logicalis UK Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Maidenhead, England. The contract bears a total value of £31,653.31. The National Oceanography Centre is located in Southampton, England, and this project relates to the services sector.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the provision of hardware maintenance services, specifically those with capabilities in facilities management for computer systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can deliver the required services may find this contract particularly beneficial due to the procurement's suitability for such entities, although it was ultimately awarded to a large company. Businesses looking to expand their portfolio in public sector contracts, particularly in the IT and facilities management domain, would be well-suited to pursue similar tenders. The use of a framework agreement suggests a streamlined procurement process, potentially offering a strategic path for businesses seeking steady and reliable contractual engagements.
