## Summary

The Met Office conducted a complete procurement process to acquire computer hardware valued at £20,900. The initiative falls under the goods category, specifically within office and computing machinery, and was carried out through a Government Framework Agreement (RM3733). The tender was open until 14 February 2017, with the contract period running from 15 February 2017 to 31 March 2017. The procurement was based in the South West region of the United Kingdom, confirming the Met Office's role as the buyer and providing a key point of contact via their procurement email.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in computer hardware and office equipment. Businesses engaged in supplying computing machinery can leverage this framework to build relationships with public sector clients like the Met Office. Competing suppliers with the capacity to fulfil governmental hardware requirements will find this a valuable opportunity for growth, especially within the UK market.
