Summary of the contracting process

Dacorum Borough Council has completed the procurement process titled "Supply of VMWare Licences" for the provision of VMWare vSphere Foundation Licences. The procurement falls under the goods category and took place within the UKH2 region, United Kingdom. The procurement used the 'direct' method, conducted below threshold without competition, with the legal basis grounded in the UKPGA 2023/54. The contract, initiated on 19th May 2025, was awarded to Saxis Group Ltd on the same date, and is set to run from 24th May 2025 until 23rd May 2026, with a total contract value of £49,628.16 (gross).

This opportunity primarily benefits businesses involved in the supply of license management software, particularly those capable of delivering VMWare solutions. Large-scale suppliers such as Saxis Group Ltd, who have established their capacity in this sector, are well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The procurement reflects a key opportunity for technology firms looking to engage with public authority clients like Dacorum Borough Council, seeking to enhance software capabilities within sub-central government entities.
