UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The contract, initiated by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, pertains to the procurement of 135 units of the iPad 11th Gen WiFi 128GB SLV. Identified under the industry category of tablet computers, this purchase falls within the remit of sub-central government authority. The contract was awarded directly to Academia Ltd, in Hemel Hempstead, through a direct procurement method due to its below-threshold value, thus not requiring competition. The procurement process is in the award stage, having been completed with a contract signed on 30th June 2025. The contract is set to commence on 1st August 2025 and conclude by 31st July 2026, with the entire process having been executed in the City of London, UK.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of electronic goods, specifically tablet computers. Academia Ltd, a large-scale supplier, successfully secured the contract, signifying that companies with a robust logistical and supply chain capability in the tech industry would likely prosper in similar procurement processes. Businesses that can offer competitive pricing and a guarantee of supply continuity, perhaps with additional support services, would find such procurement opportunities beneficial to expand their portfolios and strengthen their market presence within the public sector.
