This tender aimed at purchasing 580 Dell WD19S docking stations falls under the "goods" industry category, specifically targeting computer equipment and supplies. The procurement was conducted using a limited competition method due to below-threshold criteria, indicating a targeted approach. As of 29th July 2025, the award stage is active, with the contract commenced on the same date and concluding on 30th July 2025. The legal framework governing this process is aligned with the UKPGA 2023 legislation.
