## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service has completed a procurement process titled "01908 Additional Blade Servers for the Scottish Prison Service".

The contract was awarded on 27th May 2021, and the total value of the contract is £34,000.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for technology suppliers, especially those specialising in IT hardware and services.
