Summary of the contracting process

Sefton Council has completed the awarding stage of a procurement process titled "The supply of Lenovo Laptops" as part of its ICT Equipment Refresh Project. The procurement, classified under the industry category "Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages," sought a supplier for a second batch of 200 laptops. The procurement was conducted using a selective, restricted procedure, with tender submissions having ended on 12 February 2025. The contract period runs from 24 February 2025 to 17 November 2025, with the total contract value amounting to £131,794. The delivery location for the laptops is specified as England, United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity for suppliers in the ICT and office equipment sectors, particularly those able to meet large quantity orders with specified standards. The contract's award to Xexos, a large-scale supplier, underscores the demand for experienced and capable suppliers. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can also find opportunities through such procurement processes, given the council's openness to considering SMEs. Suppliers with a focus on providing reliable and high-quality computing equipment would be well-suited to this type of contract, enhancing their portfolio and fostering long-term public sector relationships.
