## Summary

The Inspiration Trust, a regional authority focused on education and based in Norwich, has completed a procurement process titled "Pupil Devices - Bedrock Learning." This tender falls under the industry category of goods, specifically the purchase of computer terminals and accessories.

Key details include the purchase of 1056 Windows 11 laptops/notebooks, 6500 sets of in-ear headphones, and 33 charging trolleys. The procurement method was limited, involving the award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the lack of suitable tenders received in response to a restricted procedure.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in technology and educational resources.

Suppliers with a strong track record in delivering educational technology solutions can leverage similar future opportunities to expand their market presence and build long-term relationships with educational institutions.
