Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council, operating under Procurement Services, has recently concluded a procurement process for IT Hardware, IT Asset Disposition, and related services, within the industry category of office and computing machinery. This contractual framework, valued at GBP 500,000,000, covers locations across the United Kingdom and extends to British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies. The process followed an open procedure and has reached the award stage, with contracts signed on 10th November 2025 and active from 17th November 2025 to 16th November 2029. The procurement encompasses various lots including new, refurbished, and remanufactured IT hardware, as well as secure disposal and asset management compliant with GDPR and WEEE regulations.

Business growth opportunities are significant, especially for suppliers in IT hardware and asset management and those specialising in new, refurbished, or remanufactured equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can particularly benefit from the remanufactured and refurbished lot. Companies that can provide quality goods and demonstrate social value stand a strong chance due to weighted award criteria favouring quality and social contribution. Additionally, a wide array of governmental, educational, and public health organisations are eligible to participate, presenting ample opportunity for companies to expand their reach and establish long-term service relationships.
