Summary of the contracting process

West Oxfordshire District Council has successfully completed the procurement process titled "Wasabi 700TB," focussed on data storage services. Classified under the services category, this procurement involved cloud storage aimed at providing essential backup and recovery through the G-Cloud Digital Marketplace. The procurement method was limited, carried out without prior publication of a call for competition due to the procurement's scope falling outside directive applicability. Located in Witney, UKJ14 region, the contract was awarded to "coolspirit," a supplier based in Chesterfield, UKF1 region, on 21st April 2026, with a contract value of £42,715.86.

This tender represents a potential growth opportunity for businesses specialising in cloud data storage solutions. Firms with capabilities in delivering scalable and reliable cloud storage services could find similar opportunities by engaging with councils and regional authorities in cloud-based procurement processes. Organisations that expertise in operating through marketplaces like the Gov G-Cloud Digital Marketplace could capitalize on limited procurement methods that may not require extensive competitive procedures, offering avenues for streamlined participation in public contracts.
