UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wilton Park bought 18 laptops for its operations. This is a technology hardware purchase, covering office and computing equipment and supplies rather than software or furniture (CPV 30000000). The buying organisation is Wilton Park, a central government public authority, based at Wiston House in Steyning, West Sussex. The equipment is intended for Wilton Park’s requirements at that organisation. The procurement was for goods and formed a single completed requirement. It was supplied by Dell Corporation Limited, a large technology company with a UK presence. Businesses relevant to this requirement include laptop manufacturers, authorised technology distributors, public-sector IT hardware suppliers and organisations able to provide business computing equipment at comparable scale.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Dell Corporation Limited. Wilton Park used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The single lot was completed. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026 and ran from 14 July 2026 to 30 July 2026. Its value was £16,622 excluding VAT, or £19,946 including VAT. The award is recorded as active and the contract is active. The requirement covered 18 laptops. The published outcome shows a direct, non-competitive route rather than an open tender, so there was no competitive evaluation basis recorded for selecting the supplier. The procurement was made under the Procurement Act 2023.

This procurement demonstrates a defined requirement for business laptops within Wilton Park’s central-government operations. A credible future competitor would need to supply standard office computing equipment reliably, handle an order of 18 devices, and provide commercially robust delivery and fulfilment arrangements. Relevant businesses include laptop manufacturers, authorised distributors, resellers and IT suppliers with access to established hardware supply chains. The selected supplier’s scale indicates that a business competing for a comparable requirement would benefit from dependable manufacturer relationships, product availability, order administration and the ability to support public-sector purchasing processes. Suppliers should also be able to provide clear product specifications, warranty arrangements, after-sales support and accurate invoicing for an institutional buyer purchasing multiple devices.
