Summary of the contracting process

The British Transport Police Authority procured end-user computing equipment: laptops, mobile phones and associated accessories. The requirement covers both minicomputer hardware and mobile telephones, intended to support the Authority’s operational and administrative users. Delivery spans England, Wales and Scotland. The procurement was divided into two areas: laptops and accessories, and mobile devices and accessories. The buyer is the British Transport Police Authority, based in London. This is a goods requirement rather than a service or construction contract, suited to suppliers with established supply chains for business laptops, smartphones and compatible accessories, together with the logistics capability to support a geographically dispersed UK public-sector organisation.

The procurement has been awarded and the resulting contract is active. It was run as a limited call-off under the CCS RM6098 TePAS Framework, using an award procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. Three bids were recorded. Both lots used price as the award criterion, although each lot is recorded as cancelled; the award information identifies Computacenter Plc as the selected supplier. The contract value is £13,515,500 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract was signed on 21 July 2026. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement and treated as a framework call-off outside the scope of the relevant directive. No award date or contract end date is recorded.

This outcome demonstrates substantial public-sector demand for an integrated end-user device supply capability covering laptops, mobile devices and accessories across the UK. A credible competitor for a future requirement from the British Transport Police Authority would need dependable access to business-grade hardware, competitive pricing and the ability to supply both computing and mobile product ranges through one framework route. National distribution, stock availability, fulfilment controls and support for deliveries across England, Wales and Scotland would be important practical capabilities. The price-only evaluation indicates that cost competitiveness is central to this type of purchase, while the selected large supplier suggests that scale, purchasing power and mature public-sector delivery processes can support a successful offer. Suppliers should also be able to operate effectively within the CCS RM6098 TePAS Framework.
