## Summary

The University of Salford has completed the procurement process for the renewal of the maintenance contract for the DIT Data Centre UPS, located in Salford, United Kingdom. The industry category is focused on software packages and information systems. The tender was initiated on 27th March 2025 and the contract award notice was published on 9th April 2025.

Insight Direct UK has been awarded the contract worth £10,988.83, with the contract period starting on 10th April 2025 and ending on 16th March 2026.
