The tender, titled "HP Laptops," falls under the hardware industry category and was classified as a procurement of goods. The estimated value of this tender exceeds £25,000 including VAT, with the final award value reaching £147,585.60. The procurement was conducted through a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to the urgent timeline. The process progressed through the planning stage, tender period ending on 25th March 2024, and has now completed the award stage. The contract period is slated to begin on 8th April 2024 and end on 7th April 2025. The successful supplier for this tender is IDNS HOLDINGS LIMITED, an SME based in Bolton, Lancashire. The modification notice amended the value from £25K to £147K on 30th October 2024, reflecting the scope of the procurement. This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, especially those specialising in hardware supply and IT solutions. The requirement for a specific manufacture and model, with flexibility for higher specifications, ensures that only suppliers with high-quality products and the capability to meet the detailed technical specifications are suited to compete. SMEs are particularly encouraged, as the procurement method and value align with their typical operational scales. Additionally, the possibility of a further call-off contract to purchase additional units over the following 18 months from the award date provides ongoing business opportunities for continuous engagement with Hull College. ## Notice Hull College Group aims to acquire 46 laptops for our 14-16 School to replace old damaged laptops. This tender is separate from the College's regular ICT capital expenditure requests, later this year. This tender will be advertised on the College's Intend portal. The estimated value of the tender is expected to exceed PS25,000 inc VAT, necessitating a tender process for best value and adherence to the College's Financial regulations.

We must be invoiced before 31st July Hull College is one of the largest further and higher education colleges in the country with around 500 staff, and around 12,000 students every year. The College has conducted a market evaluation and narrowed our requirements down to 1 manufactured and model, which provides the specification and approximate price point for our budgets.
