Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nuclear Restoration Services Limited, located in Thurso, Scotland, conducted a procurement process for the supply of Cisco switches, classified under the hardware industry category. The award phase of this process was completed, with key dates including the tender period ending on 23 January 2026 and the contract period from 26 January 2026 to 24 April 2026. The procurement method used was selective, via a call-off from a framework agreement, with the awarded contract valued at £85,659.18. The process is documented in an award notice published on 26 March 2026.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of networking hardware, particularly those experienced in fulfilling orders for Cisco switches. Although the procurement process was selective and may not have been open to SMEs or VCSEs, companies with a robust supply capability, like Computacenter (UK) Limited, which secured the contract, are well-positioned to compete and benefit from similar future tenders. Businesses looking to expand into the public sector hardware supply domain, especially within the UK region, should consider pursuing framework agreements to enhance their competitiveness in such procurement processes.
