The planned start of the contract is on 1 October 2026, with a completion date set for 30 September 2029, although there is potential for renewal extending to 2031. This procurement is governed by Welsh devolved regulations and aims for a budget within the range of £200,000 to £240,000. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT repair services, particularly those capable of handling repairs across multiple device categories, to expand their portfolio within the public sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, given the procurement's division into multiple lots, allowing suppliers to bid on areas aligned with their expertise and capacity. Successful suppliers will benefit from securing a long-term public sector contract, offering both stable revenue and potential for business growth. The structured approach to market engagement is designed to increase competition and ensure comprehensive service delivery to educational institutions, thus enhancing the quality and efficiency of educational IT resources. ## Notice This procurement seeks to appoint one or more suppliers for the provision of a reliable, secure, and quality-assured repair service across a diverse estate of educational devices. The scope of the requirement includes the diagnosis, repair, and return of a range of device types commonly utilised within educational settings, including Apple iPads, Google Chromebooks, and Windows-based laptops. To promote competition and enable specialist participation, the requirement will be divided into a number of separate lots. Suppliers may submit tenders for one or multiple lots, in line with their technical expertise, service capabilities, and capacity. The contracting authority reserves the right to award contracts to one or more suppliers across the respective lots, ensuring comprehensive coverage and value for money for participating educational establishments. ### Planning Information Cyngor Gwynedd will undertake a Meet the Buyer engagement event on 27 July 2026 to provide prospective suppliers with an overview of the proposed procurement and an opportunity to seek clarification on the requirement.
