Summary of the contracting process

Rochdale Borough Council has completed a procurement process for "Secondary Data Centre Support and Maintenance." This procurement falls under the category of IT services, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The contract, which was awarded to European Electronique, was finalised on April 22, 2025, with a value of £41,214.90. The procurement followed a direct award procedure without prior publication and falls outside the scope of an open competition, due to its framework agreement. The regional focus of this procurement is in the UKD region of the United Kingdom.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with a focus on consultancy, software development, and data centre support. Businesses capable of providing quality support and maintenance services for data centres are particularly well-suited to similar tenders. While this specific tender is complete, understanding the procurement process and requirements can help companies prepare for future opportunities in this lucrative sector. The use of a direct award process through the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions Framework Agreement suggests a preference for businesses already pre-qualified in this framework, thus offering advantages to those meeting these criteria.
