Lot Information
Lot 1
Having over 24,000 members of staff across five main sites and providing cutting edge medical services requires a significant investment in IT equipment and services. The Trust's IT department employs over 300 staff. It is regarded as a Global Digital Exemplar and is accredited with ISO9001 and ISO27001. The department currently maintains and supports over 45,000 hardware assets, including around 16,000 leased PC devices.
To maintain a high level of service, serviceability and security, IT equipment is subject to a continual refresh cycle, in which up to 4,000 Dell PCs installed at hospital and clinical locations across the Trust are replaced each year. The Trust now seeks to award a new contract for provision of leased desktop and laptop computer equipment across all of its sites.
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust wishes to establish a contract with a suitably experienced service provider for provision of leased desktop and laptop computers to all the Trust's Premises and Locations, which include Queen Elizabeth, Heartlands, Good Hope and Solihull Hospitals, Birmingham Chest Clinic and various community sites across Birmingham and Solihull. Consideration will be given to different service models; however, our aim is to simplify where possible, while maintaining a service with full accountability and reduced overall costs. Additional information: Potential bidders are asked to note that the route to market has not yet been decided and therefore the procurement timetable has not been finalised. The Authority will make a final decision on the most appropriate route market following this engagement exercise. This may be a direct award via an existing public sector framework agreement or alternatively, the Authority may decide to run a competitive process via a mini-competition under a framework or an openly advertised procedure. If the latter, the publication of the ITT will include the publication of a Contract Notice, a Contracts Finder notice, and the ITT documents will be published on the Authority' Atamis e-tendering system.
