Summary of the contracting process

West Berkshire Council has completed the procurement process for Dell laptops for the 2025/26 cycle. The procurement, titled "Procurement of Dell laptops 2025/26," was conducted under sub-central government authority and involved the limited procurement method due to it being below the threshold for open competition. The process was categorised under the goods industry, specifically focusing on computer terminals. Managed from their Newbury office, the procurement progressed through the stages to the award phase, with the contract commencing on 23 December 2025 and concluding on 19 January 2026. The awarded contract, valued at £99,704.16 net of VAT, was signed with PROBRAND LIMITED, based in Manchester, which will provide between 100 to 175 Dell laptops, all with 5-year ProSupport and accidental damage cover.

This tender presents a prospective opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in IT hardware provision to engage with public sector clients. The awarded contract highlights the demand for scalable supply capabilities and comprehensive after-sales support services, which are critical for maintaining competitive advantage in tenders of this nature. Businesses equipped to offer flexible supply ranges, warranty options, and robust customer support will find such contracts beneficial for expanding their footprint in the public sector market. The focus on delivery to the UKJ11 region underscores the importance of logistical capabilities and regional service support in meeting governmental procurement needs.
