The procurement method used was selective, with a tender period ending on 6th March 2024. The contract period is scheduled to run from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025.

This procurement presents opportunities for businesses involved in technical support services, specifically in the area of hardware maintenance and replacement. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete for this contract. Businesses offering Cisco networking hardware support services would find this tender particularly relevant. The location of the delivery addresses includes the United Kingdom and various other regions such as Europe and the Isle of Man.

## Notice

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) has a requirement for manufacturer hardware support and technical support for key compute, storage and network hardware that forms part of the infrastructure providing the critical National HM Coastguard Emergency Service capability. The hardware is primarily supported by a infrastructure managed service, but this service requires underpinning services for hardware replacement and manufacturer technical support. The asset list has been split into two Lots; Lot 1: Includes Cisco networking hardware. For these we require standard Cisco hardware and software support services to the required SLAs. Lot 2: Includes Cisco hardware and NetApp storage arrays that are beyond the Cisco End of Support date but is still in use. It also contains our NetApp storage arrays which have a lower level of support requirement. For this Lot we require a hardware replacement service only. This opportunity is open to all suppliers under Lot 3d of the Crown Commercial Service's Technology Services 3 framework (RM6100). A notice is not being published for Lot 2 because the value is below PS10k.
