## Summary

The procurement process for the "Virtual Host Server Replacement" was conducted by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, based in Edinburgh, UK. The contract was awarded as part of an open procurement method under the goods category, focused on securing hardware for virtual host servers to enhance digital services. The process, which was initiated to replace existing servers, has now reached the award stage and was officially completed on 3 March 2020. The total value of the contract is approximately £87,609.16.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for technology hardware suppliers, particularly those experienced in server provision and integration for public sector organisations. Businesses that specialise in virtualisation technology or have a strong track record in delivering IT infrastructure solutions would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders similar to this. With the growing reliance on digital services within the public sector, there is potential for suppliers to engage with more contracts that involve modern infrastructure upgrades.
