## Summary

The procurement process conducted by Norfolk County Council involved the acquisition of MDT hardware for its Fire and Rescue Service. The tender was titled "MDT Hardware for Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service" and fell under the industry category of tablet computers. The procurement was carried out through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, which was completed on 10th July 2026. The process was aimed at replacing existing ruggedised tablet computers utilised by the service, with delivery focused in the East of England, United Kingdom. The procurement reached the award stage, with a contract value of £247,210.24, and the contract period is set from 10th July 2026 to 31st March 2027. Specialist Computer Centres PLC was awarded the contract after the further competition phase from Lot 2 of the GCA's Technology Products & Associated Services 2 framework agreement reference RM6098.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity for firms experienced in supplying specialised hardware equipment, particularly those offering ruggedised technology solutions. While the award has been made to a large-scale enterprise, other businesses that operate within contractual frameworks and have the capability to tender for public sector projects could see growth potential through similar opportunities. Companies specialising in technology and communication services, especially those that focus on public safety and emergency services, could find themselves well-positioned to engage in future frameworks and call-off agreements initiated by local councils or governmental agencies. Such tenders can pave the way for sustained engagement with public sector clients, particularly within the technological supply chain in regions like East of England.
