## Summary

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured Cisco hardware for its boiler room. This is an ICT equipment purchase, rather than a general hardware installation project. The recorded delivery location is Harlow, England. The requirement was described as Cisco kit, with no further breakdown of equipment or installation work.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Softcat Plc on 28 September 2026 for £26,000. It was run as a selective call-off from HealthTrust Europe LLP’s Enterprise Level Information Communication Technology Digital Technology Solutions 2023 framework (ComIT 3). The submission deadline was 14 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2031. The published information gives no evaluation basis or lot breakdown.

This award demonstrates demand from the Trust for Cisco hardware supporting its boiler room, purchased through the ComIT 3 framework. A credible future competitor would need to supply suitable Cisco equipment and be able to compete through this framework route. Softcat, a large supplier, was selected, and the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to established ICT hardware suppliers with the scale and framework access to serve an NHS trust.
