Summary of the contracting process

Public Health Scotland procured replacement laptops as goods for its mobile client-device requirements. The requirement covered one lot and was delivered in Scotland. The buying organisation is Public Health Scotland, based in Edinburgh, which acts as the central purchasing body. The procurement was for standard business laptops rather than installation, support or wider information-technology services. It formed part of the Mobile client devices framework, indicating a requirement aligned with supplying portable computing equipment to a public-sector health organisation. Businesses relevant to this type of opportunity include manufacturers, authorised resellers and technology distributors able to provide replacement laptop hardware for organisational use across Scotland.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. It used an open procedure and was awarded through the Mobile client devices framework. HP Inc UK Limited was selected for the replacement-laptop lot. The contract value is £166,395 including the published currency, and it was signed on 9 September 2026. The tender completed with one bid, none from an SME, and the bid was submitted by a non-EU supplier. The available outcome records identify a single awarded supplier and a single lot. The published process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No contract end date or separate evaluation weighting is recorded in the procurement outcome.

This award demonstrates demand from Public Health Scotland for replacement laptops procured through a mobile-client-devices framework. A credible future competitor would need to supply business-grade portable computers at organisational scale, manage delivery across Scotland and meet the purchasing and compliance requirements associated with a public-sector framework call-off. The result also shows that the requirement was fulfilled by a large technology company, while no SME submitted a bid, suggesting that established manufacturers, major distributors and authorised channel partners are the closest fit. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate dependable hardware supply, consistent product specifications, logistics capacity and the financial and operational resilience to support a sizeable public-sector equipment order.
