## Summary

NHS Grampian has completed a tender process for the provision of Veritas Backup Appliances, aimed at enhancing its data management capabilities related to backup and restore. Located in Aberdeen, UK, NHS Grampian is a public healthcare authority that identifies itself under the health industry category. This open procurement, conducted under the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions Framework, culminated in the contract award dated 2nd June 2021, with a total contract value of £213,000. The procurement process has successfully concluded, with the contract awarded to Total Computer Networks.

This project offers significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in IT equipment and data management solutions. Companies with expertise in backup systems, particularly those capable of extending storage capabilities and managing end-of-life technology transitions, would be well-positioned to compete in similar contracts. In particular, larger firms with experience in public sector tenders may find this sector presents sustainable growth potential, especially when leveraging frameworks established for public procurement.
