Summary of the contracting process

Fife College bought desktop devices for its education operations, under a desktop device refresh requirement. The contract covered the supply of desktop computers, classified as desktop computer equipment (CPV 30213300). Fife College is the buying organisation, based in Dunfermline, and the devices were for delivery in the Fife area. The requirement was handled through the Scottish Government’s Mobile Client Devices Framework, which provides the purchasing route for this supply. This is a goods requirement rather than a services or construction contract, and is most relevant to computer manufacturers, resellers and technology suppliers able to supply desktop devices to a further education college through the relevant framework route.

The procurement is complete: HP Inc UK Limited was selected as supplier and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 26 August 2026, with a contract value of £170,425. It covered one lot for desktop device supply. The process used an open procedure and was conducted through the Scottish Government Mobile Client Devices Framework. One bid was recorded for the lot. The published information identifies no separate award date or contract period, so the outcome details available are the supplier, signed date and contract value. The procurement was for Fife College; the recorded award relates to the single desktop device requirement, rather than separate awards to multiple suppliers.

The award demonstrates demand from Fife College for desktop device refreshes and identifies the Scottish Government Mobile Client Devices Framework as the purchasing route used for this requirement. A supplier seeking to compete when comparable demand next reaches the market would need to be able to supply desktop devices to an education institution through the applicable framework, and to meet the college’s required delivery and product specifications. HP Inc UK Limited won the award, and one bid was recorded, providing a concrete example of the supplier profile and competitive route used for this purchase. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers and authorised technology resellers with the capacity to fulfil institutional desktop equipment orders. No particular accreditation, service package or technical specification is stated here, so the evidence of fit is the ability to supply desktop devices through that route.
