## Summary

Nottingham Trent University (NTU) has completed the procurement process for its "Endpoint Computing Equipment Framework", focusing on the acquisition of computing equipment that spans various sectors including staff, students, research, and Audio Visual requirements. Located in Nottingham, UK, NTU conducted this procurement via an open, competitive flexible procedure, under the guidance of procurement legislation 2023/54. The process covered two distinct lots: one for desktops, laptops, workstations, and peripherals, and another for Apple products and associated accessories. The framework agreement commenced on 19th February 2026, with an estimated end date of 26th February 2029, subject to a possible extension. Key suppliers for these lots include Getech Ltd and Jigsaw Systems Limited, ensuring comprehensive delivery across designated NTU campuses and potentially any UK address required.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for growth in the computing industry, especially for suppliers involved in providing high-spec technology solutions across educational and research environments. The procurement focused on strategic commitments such as net-zero carbon solutions and sustainability, offering businesses that align with these values a competitive edge. Organisations demonstrating strong technical capabilities and innovative product offerings are well-positioned to benefit from similar tenders. SMEs engaging in IT solutions and sustainable practices particularly stand to gain from participating in future procurements of this nature, leveraging the experience to expand their market presence in academia-related supply chains.

## Notice

Endpoint computing equipment is procured by the Digital Technologies department. The computers we order mainly fail into 4 areas: staff, students, research and Audio Visual. Staff traditionally have used a mixture of desktop computers and laptops but since the Covid Pandemic this has moved heavily towards laptops with associated docks, monitors, keyboards and mice. All-in-one computers are mainly used in the student open access areas and general IT teaching spaces. Many of our specialist computer teaching rooms use workstation class PCs with powerful processors and high spec graphics cards. The Research community use a variety of computers depending on their requirements, often these are bespoke workstations. The final area of Audio Visual covers the teaching lecterns and digital signage. Some of the lecterns and the digital signage use ultra-small form factor computers but the lecterns in the larger rooms use more powerful small form factor computers capable of handling lecture capture. Scope The following section defines the scope and exclusions of the Contract for the University's requirements. The framework agreement is divided up into lots as follows: Lot 1 - Desktops, laptops and workstations along with associated peripheral devices and accessories Lot 2 - Apple Products and associated peripheral devices and accessories. The University reserves the right to order from outside of this tender when the winning supplier is unable to provide the required computers. Goods will need to be delivered to: * Any UK address for home use requirements * A Designated DT office/storeroom to replenish our stocks * A specific room on any of our campuses where they would typically be unpacked and fitted to desk, and all packing etc. should be removed and appropriately disposed of. This is currently a free service, as is the ability to hold stock in bond at our supplier premises until we need to call it forward. The supplier should hold a 'gold stock' of our core products in order to fulfil a next day delivery of small quantity of devices (typically 5). The supplier should provide a web portal for the University to review current pricing and availability, Gold Stock levels etc. The supplier should also provide a next day swap out service for broken computers on the core devices. All other devices have a next business day onsite warranty.
