UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cambridgeshire bought 22 Dell Pro 16 PC16250 laptops for its computing requirements. The specified configuration is Dell part number 210-BQPL, with an Intel Ultra 5 processor, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. This is a goods supply requirement for business hardware rather than installation, software development or consultancy. The purchasing organisation is the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cambridgeshire. The award covers computer hardware classified under CPV 44316400. The published procurement information does not identify a separate delivery site, so the requirement should be understood in the context of supplying the Commissioner’s organisation in Cambridgeshire. The scale is a single, standardised laptop purchase, with all units grouped under one requirement and supplied by one awarded business.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. Specialist Computer Centres PLC was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026, with a contract period from 14 to 15 August 2026. Its value is £21,057.08 excluding VAT, or £25,268.50 including VAT. The procurement used one completed lot covering the 22 Dell laptops. The award is active and the contract is active. The evaluation basis is not stated in the available procurement information, so the recorded outcome is based on the limited-competition route rather than a published price or quality weighting. This was a direct, tightly defined hardware supply exercise rather than a multi-stage services contract or framework appointment.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need dependable access to Dell business laptops and the ability to supply a consistent specification across a small batch. Relevant capability includes matching the exact manufacturer model and part number, confirming processor, memory and storage configuration, and managing order fulfilment accurately. A supplier with established manufacturer or distributor relationships, business hardware logistics and public-sector purchasing experience would be well placed to compete through a limited-competition route. The purchase also indicates demand for standardised end-user computing equipment within the Commissioner’s organisation. Competitors should therefore be able to respond quickly to a clearly specified product requirement, provide reliable stock or sourcing arrangements, and support straightforward delivery and contract administration without proposing unnecessary technical or consultancy scope.
