## Summary

The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman has completed a procurement process for the supply of 50 Lenovo L13 laptops under the title "Think Pads," classified in the industry category of office and computing machinery, equipment, and supplies. The procurement was conducted through a selective method by calling off a framework agreement. The tender process was managed in Manchester, with the contract award published on 21 January 2025, and the contract period starting from 27 January 2025 to 3 February 2025. The total contract value is £38,271 GBP.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for suppliers who can efficiently deliver high-quality computing equipment. Companies that have a track record of working with public sector contracts, particularly those specialising in IT hardware and office equipment, such as CCS Media Limited who won this contract, would be well-suited to compete in similar procurement processes. Given the substantial contract value and the nature of the goods required, businesses with established logistics and supply chain capabilities will be highly competitive in these opportunities.
