## Summary

Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation (YPO) is considering buying 15 vehicle-mounted computers for forklift trucks used in its warehouse operations at its headquarters in Wakefield. The purchase would include the equipment needed to install and operate the computers securely, such as brackets, mounts, power supplies and other accessories. The requirement is primarily for goods, with related services also anticipated. The computers are intended for use in YPO’s warehouse operations, so suppliers should be able to provide equipment and installation components suited to forklift use. This is a potential procurement: YPO has not committed to buying the equipment.

The process is at planning stage, with YPO conducting preliminary market engagement to develop its requirements and budget. Suppliers are invited to provide market feedback through an online questionnaire by 23:59 on 9 November 2026; this is an engagement response date, not a tender bid deadline. The stated estimated value is £100,000 excluding VAT (£120,000 including VAT). The planned contract period runs from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2030, with a possible extension to 31 January 2032. YPO is seeking input on available devices, indicative costs, functionality, technical requirements, implementation, warranty and support. Participation in engagement will not affect any later procurement.

This engagement is relevant to suppliers of rugged or otherwise suitable vehicle-mounted computers, as well as businesses able to supply compatible brackets, mounts, power supplies and accessories for forklift installation. Suppliers with experience advising on secure deployment in warehouse operations can contribute on technical and implementation considerations. YPO is seeking devices that can receive appropriate security patches and support its compliance with ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials over the anticipated three-to-five-year period. Product functionality, warranty and ongoing support are also areas on which it wants supplier feedback. The planned quantity may suit suppliers able to supply and support a defined fleet-sized requirement. Taking part is a way to help shape requirements, but is not a commitment to purchase or a bid for the future contract.

## Notice

YPO is undertaking preliminary market engagement to inform a potential procurement for 15 vehicle mounted computers for use on forklift trucks within its warehouse operations at YPO Headquarters, Wakefield. YPO is seeking feedback from suppliers on suitable devices currently available, including the brackets, mounts, power supplies and other accessories needed to securely fit and operate them on YPO's forklift trucks, indicative costs, product functionality, technical requirements, implementation considerations and warranty/support. Proposed solutions should be capable of receiving appropriate security patches and supporting YPO's compliance with ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials for an anticipated period of three to five years. This engagement is intended to improve YPO's understanding of the market and support the development of its requirements and budget. Taking part will not affect any future procurement, and YPO is not committed to making a purchase. Interested suppliers are invited to respond by 23:59 on 9 November 2026.
