## Summary

East Cambridgeshire District Council (ECDC) has completed a procurement process for the replacement of their existing ESXI servers. ECDC sought upgraded hardware to ensure compatibility with their current infrastructure and future needs, specifically requiring servers interoperable with existing HPE DR Servers. The procurement, categorised under Computer equipment and supplies (CPV code: 30200000), was conducted via further competition using the CCS RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Framework Lot 2: Hardware. The contract, valued at £27,291, was awarded on 22 March 2024 to CDW Limited UK, with a provision period from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2029.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in providing computer equipment and hardware support services, particularly those experienced with HPE technologies. SMEs were considered suitable for this competition, suggesting that smaller firms capable of supplying compatible and reliable hardware solutions could successfully compete. Businesses that can offer long-term support and maintenance in line with the five-year hardware support requirement will find this procurement especially favourable.

## Notice

East Cambridgeshire District Council (ECDC) are looking to replace our existing ESXI servers. We are looking to replace the servers with the same manufacturer due to existing internal configuration(s) within the Council, therefore an upgraded version is sought to meet our current and future needs. Currently we have 4 ESXI servers HP DL380 Gen9 serving as our Hypervisor with @ 60 VM's. These in turn replicate to our DR site, thus replacement ESXI Servers in this tender must be interoperable with existing HPE DR Servers. ECDC requires hardware support for a period of 5 years. This is a further competition using the CCS RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Framework Lot 2: Hardware.
