Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow City Council bought laptops and other mobile computing equipment for a council technology refresh. The scope covered mobile hardware, standard corporate notebooks, enhanced corporate notebooks and additional mobile notebooks with 4G capability. The devices are for use in Glasgow. The procurement also allowed the council to purchase further laptops and monitors. This is a supply requirement for businesses providing business-grade laptops and related mobile devices, rather than a general IT services contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to HP Inc UK Limited. It was a single-lot purchase made through the Scottish Government’s Mobile Client Devices Framework, using an open procedure. The contract value is £1,000,000. The contract was signed on 23 March 2026 and is recorded as active. The stated maximum estimated value was £1,000,000 excluding VAT; actual expenditure depends on operational requirements and could be lower. The council retained the option to buy further laptops and monitors. The award data does not state an evaluation basis or contract period.

This award shows demand from Glasgow City Council for a coordinated supply of laptops and mobile computing equipment to support a council-wide refresh. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply business-grade notebooks across standard and enhanced specifications, as well as mobile devices with 4G capability, and be able to accommodate additional laptop and monitor purchases. The requirement is suited to hardware suppliers with the capacity to meet varied device needs through the Scottish Government’s Mobile Client Devices Framework. One bid was recorded for this lot, and the contract went to HP Inc UK Limited.
