## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Hertfordshire procured 20 Dell Pro 16 PC16250 laptops (model 210-BQPL), each with an Intel Ultra 5 processor, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. This is a goods requirement for computer hardware, supporting the commissioner’s operational IT needs. The buying organisation is a sub-central public authority based at Harpenden Police Station in Harpenden, Hertfordshire. The requirement concerns a single, defined equipment purchase rather than a broader managed service, installation programme or software contract. Suppliers relevant to this requirement are computer hardware distributors, public-sector technology resellers and IT equipment providers able to source and supply the specified Dell model and configuration in the required quantity.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Specialist Computer Centres PLC was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and runs from 14 to 15 August 2026. Its value is £19,142.80 excluding VAT, or £22,971.36 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome records the purchase of the 20 Dell laptops as hardware goods. The available process information identifies the procurement route and outcome, but does not set out a separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting. The selected supplier is a large organisation based in Birmingham.

This award provides a clear benchmark for technology suppliers serving Hertfordshire’s policing environment: the buyer required a standardised batch of 20 business laptops, rather than a bespoke development or complex transformation service. Competitors would need reliable access to Dell commercial hardware, the ability to match an exact manufacturer model and specification, and sufficient fulfilment capacity to supply a complete batch consistently. Public-sector resellers with established distributor relationships, experience supplying police or other public authorities, and robust ordering, delivery and warranty processes would be well placed for a similar requirement. The completed purchase also indicates that this buyer uses a below-threshold limited competition route for discrete hardware needs, so suppliers should be capable of responding efficiently to targeted opportunities of this type.
