The overall contract value is set at £400,000, with a minimum threshold of £275,000. This procurement falls under the goods category and employs an open procedure below the threshold. The tender was published on 27th November 2020, and the tender period closed on 11th December 2020. The contract is scheduled to commence on 17th December 2020 and will conclude on 31st January 2021, with delivery expected at the buyer's address in Cambridge, England. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in technology and educational resources. Companies with experience in providing electronic devices, particularly in the education sector, would be well-positioned to compete in this process. The initiative aims to enhance educational outcomes in Sierra Leone by equipping schools with necessary digital tools, thus benefiting suppliers who can offer effective products and services that align with the needs of the Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education. ## Notice Mott MacDonald Limited is appointed by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) to deliver the Sierra Leone Secondary Education Improvement Programme (SSEIP - also known as Leh Wi Lan). This programme supports the Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education to improve learning outcomes for boys and girls at secondary level and to increase the enrolment, retention and well-being of girls and children with disabilities. The nature of the programme requires tablet computers to be used for monitoring and training. The Company seeks to purchase 1,380 such tablet computers, with cases. Further information and instructions to potential suppliers can be found in the attached Request for Proposal (RFP) document. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/31032222-7311-4246-9313-966d8d1d463b | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | 11 Dec 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 16 Dec 2020 | | Contract period | 16 Dec 2020 - 31 Jan 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £400,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £340,000 | | 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 | MOTT MACDONALD LIMITED | | Locality | CAMBRIDGE | | Post town | Cambridge | | Postcode | CB1 2JD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Cambridge | | Electoral ward | Petersfield | | Westminster constituency | Cambridge | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | HOUSE OF ELECTRONICS (SL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 30 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages ### Codes - 30213200 - Tablet computer ## Release History - 16 Dec 2020 at 16:35 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/31032222-7311-4246-9313-966d8d1d463b - 27 Nov 2020 at 11:02 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/70271cdf-5230-4a44-978b-013108bc0cfc - 27 Nov 2020 at 08:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/70271cdf-5230-4a44-978b-013108bc0cfc ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/31032222-7311-4246-9313-966d8d1d463b 16th December 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/70271cdf-5230-4a44-978b-013108bc0cfc 27th November 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/0cd0df3e-729f-47f9-9183-acbc0bf8a6c8 Request for Proposals (RFP) - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a0903263-9422-401f-ac5f-db202107e921 Request for Proposals (RFP) ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
