Located in Stirling, the procurement reached the award stage as of 21st July 2025, with the contract being signed on 23rd June 2025. The primary activity of this tender involved the purchase and installation of network infrastructure. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) and classified under the CPV code 48000000.

The procurement of network reconfiguration services presents substantive growth opportunities for businesses involved in digital workplace solutions, network infrastructure, and IT services.

The open procurement method encourages participation from diverse entities, ensuring a competitive environment conducive to innovative solutions. While Softcat Plc was the sole bidder and subsequently awarded, the opportunity remains open for similar future procurements to attract a wider pool of contestants, including those from non-EU countries. This framework suggests an open and competitive landscape driving future business expansion in digital solutions.
