Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea has completed a procurement process for "Data Centre Server Hardware" in the goods category. The infrastructure is moving to the Guildhall, and new server infrastructure will be installed with links to public cloud data centres. The tender was initiated on March 30, 2022, and the award was made on June 21, 2022, with a contract value of £399,000. The procurement method used was an open procedure, and the main delivery location is the Civic Centre in Swansea, Wales. The High Court acted as a review body for the process.

This tender offers an opportunity for businesses, particularly IT suppliers focusing on server hardware and related services, to expand their operations. With the relocation of the data centre and adoption of cloud technology, businesses offering server hardware solutions compatible with public cloud services like Microsoft Azure would be well-suited to compete. The contract period allows for a 24-month optional extension, presenting a potential long-term opportunity for suppliers to establish a presence in serving the City & County of Swansea's IT infrastructure needs.
