## Summary

The procurement process titled "Desktop Replacement" conducted by the Police And Crime Commissioner For Durham involves the provision of minicomputer hardware and is classified under the goods category. Located in Durham, United Kingdom, with delivery addresses in UKC1 region, the procurement reached the award stage, as indicated by tags "award" and "contract." This initiative was completed on 9th March 2026.

Although the process had a limited procurement method, Insight Direct (UK) Limited from Sheffield successfully secured the contract valued at £106,724.00, emphasizing the significance for SMEs to tap into niche procurement markets that may not require competitive tendering. Entering into agreements with public bodies like the Police And Crime Commissioner presents growth prospects, underpinned by reliable partnerships in public order and safety sectors.
