## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the direct award of a contract by Cheshire East Council for the provision of hardware and software support for the Bull Escala Estate, classified under the maintenance and repair of computer equipment (CPV: 50312000). The contract has an estimated value of £78,000 and covers a period from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018.
