Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden procured Cisco Enterprise Agreement services to manage all Cisco licences deployed across its Camden sites. This is an IT services requirement covering software licensing and associated support and management, classified under CPV 72000000. The work is for Camden Council sites in London. The agreement relates to the council’s existing Cisco estate rather than a new general-purpose IT outsourcing service. The procurement was arranged through the Health Trust Europe ICT Solutions 2023 – Complete IT 3 (COMIT 3) framework, under the framework’s route for repeated existing services. The selected supplier was CDW Ltd, a large London-based IT supplier. The requirement was treated as a single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the award and contract are active.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to CDW Ltd. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026 and is active. It used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, through the Health Trust Europe ICT Solutions 2023 – Complete IT 3 framework. The stated justification was the repetition of existing services under the conditions of the procurement rules. Price was the award criterion. One bid was recorded, with valid bid values ranging from £180,000 to £195,000; the awarded contract value is not stated. The planned agreement term is three years, with a possible 12-month extension at Camden Council’s sole discretion. The requirement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This procurement indicates recurring demand from Camden for structured management of a substantial Cisco licensing estate across council sites. Competitors would need credible capability in Cisco enterprise licensing, licence administration and the associated IT support needed to manage an established deployment over a multi-year term. Experience of delivering repeat or continuation services, maintaining continuity across an existing Cisco environment and controlling licence positions across multiple sites would be relevant. The route to market also matters: suppliers seeking similar work from Camden would need access to, or a relationship with, an appropriate public-sector framework such as Health Trust Europe’s ICT Solutions 2023 – Complete IT 3 framework. The single recorded bid and price-only evaluation suggest that framework eligibility, commercial competitiveness and the ability to provide a clear, supportable licensing offer are important considerations.
