The procurement process, classified under the goods category with a focus on software package and information systems, was conducted through an open procedure. This contract, located in Liverpool, England, has a total value of £35,219 and covers the contract period from 7 August 2017 to 31 August 2017. Key dates included the tender's closure on 14 July 2017, and the award notice published on 31 August 2017. This contract presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specializing in IT services, particularly those offering installation services and backup solutions. Businesses that are well-versed in Microsoft Hyper-V compatibility and can provide comprehensive support, including installation and training, should consider competing for similar future tenders. Given the preference for voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs), smaller firms in the IT sector may find this especially beneficial as they seek to expand their footprint in the public procurement arena. ## Notice Bidders are asked to submit a format tender response for the NML IT Backup Solution.
