## Summary

The procurement process was conducted by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS), seeking bids for the "Glasgow UPS Refresh & Replacement" project, classified under the goods category in the public order and safety industry. This initiative, awarded under the open procedure, aimed to assess and improve Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems in the Glasgow and Edinburgh data centres, following a failure during a power cut in Glasgow. The contract, which amounts to £97,258.94, was signed on 20 December 2019, marking the completion of this procurement stage.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in IT peripherals and solutions, particularly those with expertise in UPS systems and related services. Given that only Computacenter UK submitted a bid, companies with capabilities in this specific area may find potential for competitive advantage. Engaging in such contracts could lead to increased visibility and collaboration with public sector bodies, thereby fostering growth in the technology and infrastructure segments.

## Notice

COPFS had a requirement to review the current state of their UPSs in both their Glasgow and Edinburgh data centres. This was the result of a power cut at the Glasgow location and the UPS did not perform as required.

### Lot Information
