## Summary

The Met Office, based in Exeter, England, has completed a procurement process for computer hardware under the Government Framework Agreement RM3733, classified under IT services (CPV code 72000000). The procurement, which followed a selective method, was initiated with a tender period that concluded on 14 March 2018. The contract spanned from 15 March 2018 to 29 March 2018, with a total value of £13,240.92. The award for this contract was published on 4 July 2018.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the IT hardware sector, particularly those able to fulfil government contracts through existing framework agreements. Businesses that specialise in computer hardware supply, including those capable of providing tailored solutions or support services, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future procurement processes. With the Met Office as the contracting authority, potential suppliers should ensure that they meet the specific requirements and standards set forth in government tenders.
