## Summary

The procurement process undertaken by Liverpool City Council, operating as a public authority under sub-central government, concluded successfully with the "Corporate Network Hardware Refresh_26" project. This initiative involved the acquisition of ICT hardware to refresh the corporate network infrastructure as per the prescribed equipment schedule. The procurement stage is now in the Award phase, with the contract awarded on 22nd July 2026 to INSIGHT DIRECT (UK) LTD, a company based in Sheffield. The project, categorised under computer equipment and supplies, is located in the UKD72 region and is supported through a framework agreement. The contract is set to commence on 1st August 2026 and will conclude on 31st December 2026, with a total contract value of £699,612.71, inclusive of VAT.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies involved in the supply of ICT equipment and technology solutions. Although the tender was awarded under a non-competitive framework process, similar contracts would be ideal for hardware suppliers keen on expanding their market presence in government infrastructure projects. Businesses that specialise in network hardware and are equipped to meet large-scale public-sector demands could foster new partnerships and strengthen their strategic positioning by engaging in similar future opportunities with public bodies like Liverpool City Council.
