Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the supply of three hardware appliances and associated licences under the title "A10 Loadbalancer". Governed by the legal framework of UK's 2023/54 legislation, this contract falls under the goods category, specifically focusing on hardware. Utilising a limited competition method as it is below the threshold, the procurement has completed all necessary stages and has now moved into the award phase. The supplier, A10 Networks Ltd, will deliver the contracted goods starting from 1st December 2025, with the contract running until 30th November 2028. The total gross value of the contract is £149,984.08, with operations focused in the United Kingdom, particularly targeting the region of UKE.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses involved in hardware goods delivery, especially those with capabilities in load balancing technology. Companies with expertise in IT hardware solutions and support services for longer-term projects can benefit from such contracts, enhancing their portfolios and gaining valuable partnerships with government organisations like the North Yorkshire Council. The limited competition procurement method indicates an opportunity for potential future tenders that align with specific governmental needs, fostering growth for large-scale suppliers familiar with the public procurement processes. Businesses looking to expand their client base within the public sector should consider engaging with similar opportunities to leverage governmental projects as avenues for growth.
