## Summary

The City of Liverpool College has recently completed a procurement process titled "IT Hardware Purchase," focusing on acquiring IT hardware under a goods industry category. The procurement was conducted through a direct method without competition, as it was below the threshold. The College is based at The Learning Exchange in Liverpool, UK, and this specific tender, identified by the number ETQ 1400 PO 30883, concluded on the 14th of May 2026. The procurement involved the purchase of refurbished IT equipment, specifically Dell Latitude laptops, with the contract awarded to AMC-IT Solutions Limited. The contract period is from the 14th to the 21st of May 2026, focusing on the delivery in the UK region UKD72.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for growth for IT businesses capable of supplying refurbished computer hardware. Although the process was completed through direct procurement, companies specialising in similar goods may find potential future opportunities by keeping abreast of sub-central government needs, particularly institutions like The City of Liverpool College. Established businesses with the capability to provide competitive pricing and reliable warranty services on refurbished IT products will be well-positioned to engage in similar future procurements.
