UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The City of Liverpool College has concluded the procurement process for "Capital Summer IT Purchases," targeting the computer equipment industry within the UK region UKD72. This procurement, finalized on 4th June 2026, is in the completion stage, involving a direct award through the HealthTrust Europe framework. The purchase, valued at £215,921.29, encompasses monitors, wired mice, keyboards, desktops, bases, and charging carts. The decision to proceed with Dell Corporation Limited was driven by the need for continuity and compatibility in the College's IT systems. The contract period commenced on 4th June 2026 and is set to conclude on 18th June 2026.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for businesses involved in the supply of computer equipment and related goods, particularly those familiar with the HealthTrust Europe framework, to gain a foothold in the education sector. Although the contract has been directly awarded to a large enterprise, smaller companies with niche products compatible with existing Dell systems might find collaborative opportunities or future tenders appealing. Businesses looking to expand their client base within educational institutions could benefit from exploring similar opportunities that focus on continuity and system compatibility.
