## Summary

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) bought four Dell R670 computer servers for delivery to its site in Swansea, Wales. This is a hardware supply requirement, rather than a wider IT service or installation contract. The servers are intended for DVLA operations; no further technical specification or use is described. The purchase is categorised as computer servers (CPV 48822000).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Specialist Computer Centres. The award was made on 14 October 2026, with a contract period from 14 October 2026 to 14 October 2031. The awarded value was £133,628.84. The requirement was procured selectively as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 18 August 2026 at 12:00. The published information does not set out evaluation criteria or a breakdown into lots.

This purchase demonstrates DVLA demand for enterprise server hardware, specifically Dell R670 servers, at a scale of four units. Specialist Computer Centres, a large supplier, was selected through a framework call-off, so a credible competitor for a similar requirement would need access to the relevant framework route and the ability to supply this server model or technically compliant equivalent hardware. The requirement is suited to SMEs, which may be relevant to specialist resellers able to meet the buyer’s specification and fulfil a small multi-unit order. The purchase is a goods supply opportunity, with delivery to DVLA in Swansea; the available details do not establish a need for installation, maintenance or other services.
