Summary of the contracting process

The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons procured a range of hardware, software, support and associated services for the Parliamentary network. The requirement covers network equipment and computer network services, including products and support needed to operate and maintain the network. The House of Lords is also identified as a buyer in this process. Delivery is for Parliament at Westminster, London.

The procurement is complete and awarded. The contract was awarded to Computacenter UK Ltd through a direct, below-threshold process without competition, covering a single lot. The award is active and the contract has been signed. The contract period runs from 24 July 2026 to 23 July 2027. Its value is £100,800 excluding VAT (£120,960 including VAT).

This award demonstrates recurring demand from Parliament for network infrastructure products and related support. Suppliers seeking to compete for similar work with the House of Commons should be able to provide network hardware and software alongside the services needed to support a live parliamentary network. Credible competitors would need the capacity to supply a varied product range and deliver dependable technical support and network services at an institutional scale. The contract was placed directly without competition, so suppliers should also understand that this buyer has previously used a below-threshold route for this requirement. Computacenter UK Ltd, a large supplier, was selected.
