Summary of the contracting process

The City of Doncaster Council has recently completed a procurement process titled "SLH - IT Mobile and Tablet hardware provision," focused on the procurement of mobile phone and tablet hardware. This process, categorised under the information technology services industry, was managed using a direct procurement method, referred to as "Below threshold - without competition." The associated contract was awarded to ACADEMIA LTD, a supplier based in Hemel Hempstead. The contract was signed on 30th July 2025, covered a period from 1st to 31st August 2025, and had a gross value of £32,100. The procurement location was within the region of UKE31 in the United Kingdom.

SMEs, similar to ACADEMIA LTD, could find lucrative opportunities in such direct procurement processes, which may not require extensive competition and can streamline entry for well-positioned suppliers. Businesses adept at providing efficient and specialised IT solutions to public sector entities would be well-suited to engage in similar opportunities in the future.
