This procurement is aiming to replace outdated storage systems that the college has used for the past five years, with a total contract value of £56,069.98. The tender period concluded on 3rd March 2017, and the contract is set to run from 1st April 2017 to 31st March 2022. The principal industry category for this procurement is computer equipment and supplies, with installation scheduled for July 2017 at the college's location in Plymouth, England. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the IT and computer supplies sector, particularly those that can provide storage solutions and related services. Suppliers, especially SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises), would be well positioned to compete given the open nature of the procurement process. The successful bidder will not only secure a contract with a reputable educational institution but may also benefit from long-term relationships through associated future tenders for standalone servers and maintenance services. ## Notice The college has been running an HP Blade and SAN storage combination for the past 5 years and is now looking for the latest technology replacement system to carry the college critical business systems for the next 5 years. Installation is expected by July 2017. This RFQ is for the SAN replacement only. The college will be purchasing standalone servers to replace the blades and this is subject to a separate tender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3ea7211a-c952-4711-85ff-3f409e216c42 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Mar 2017 | | Submission deadline | 3 Mar 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 21 Mar 2017 | | Contract period | 23 Mar 2017 - 23 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £54,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £56,069 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CITY COLLEGE PLYMOUTH | | Locality | PLYMOUTH | | Post town | Plymouth | | Postcode | PL1 5QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK41 Plymouth | | Local authority | Plymouth | | Electoral ward | Stoke | | Westminster constituency | Plymouth Sutton and Devonport | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | ITEC CONNECT | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 30 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 30200000 - Computer equipment and supplies - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ## Release History - 23 Mar 2017 at 14:38 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3ea7211a-c952-4711-85ff-3f409e216c42 - 27 Feb 2017 at 14:15 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ec3e7dc2-31f2-4a1e-bec4-2042f1ecb36f - 11 Feb 2017 at 14:22 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ec3e7dc2-31f2-4a1e-bec4-2042f1ecb36f - 10 Feb 2017 at 15:24 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ec3e7dc2-31f2-4a1e-bec4-2042f1ecb36f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3ea7211a-c952-4711-85ff-3f409e216c42 23rd March 2017 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ec3e7dc2-31f2-4a1e-bec4-2042f1ecb36f 27th February 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/14a6796d-769d-4e3d-9ab0-c86cf79cfa0a RFQ057 Tender documentation - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3ed80ae6-651c-431f-ae89-baeb75cdf001 RFQ057- Appendix A Pricing Schedule - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5c271c3f-f18a-4f7d-8bbd-0537f9f2da87 RFQ057 - Appendix B terms and Conditions - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4bb36f87-03ae-4a3e-979d-250e5c628574 RFQ057 - Appendix C suitability Questionnaire - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/295d0e58-85fb-4a00-abb6-010ccb38e19d RFQ057 - Appendix D SAN Replacement Further Information - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/44b8bdf5-1f0f-41ac-9e83-27aaf351de31 RFQ057 - Appendix E Technical Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/33b1263d-a855-4b95-a238-58f6028f0275 Clarification questions ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
