## Summary

The procurement process pertains to a contract awarded by the Department for Transport (DfTc) for the temporary maintenance equipment required at the Southern Data Centre. The contract, valued at £50,921, falls under the category of construction consultancy services and took place in the South East of England. The tender period concluded on 19 January 2021, with the contract officially starting on 20 January 2021 and set to end on 27 January 2021. This procurement was executed through a direct method, classified as a single tender action below threshold.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in construction consultancy and temporary infrastructure services, particularly those adept in emergency solutions. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete for future projects that involve similar requirements, given their agility and local service capabilities, which are critical in urgent circumstances like those described in this contract.

## Notice

This temporary equipment was installed under emergency measures to maintenance the operation of the Southern Data Centre when the outside air temperature exceeded 36 degrees C. This equipment is still required to give additional resilience to the data centre until such time as the existing equipment is replaced. The existing contract is with Anchor Pipework Ltd and this is an extension to this contract. Competitive tender action for this provision would incur approx. PS10k to 15k additional costs to remove the existing temporary system and approx. 2 weeks disruption to the data centre while replacing the temporary system with one provided by a new supplier.
