## Summary

The University of the Highlands and Islands bought a network monitoring tool through a call-off from the Scottish Procurement Software Value Added Re-Seller Framework Agreement (SP-21-034). This is a technology services requirement covering the supply of software or related network monitoring capability, rather than general education services or construction work. The University is based in Inverness, and the procurement concerns its own operational technology needs. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and classified under CPV 72222300, covering information technology services related to information technology requirements review. The framework route indicates that the buyer was seeking a supplier able to provide the specified network monitoring solution under an established Scottish public-sector purchasing arrangement.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used an open procedure to make a call-off from the Scottish Procurement Software Value Added Re-Seller Framework Agreement. There was one lot, covering the network monitoring tool, and two electronic bids were received. Computacenter was selected as the supplier. The contract is active, valued at £147,000, and was signed on 20 August 2026. The evaluation awarded 70% to quality and 30% to price, so technical suitability and the quality of the proposed solution carried substantially more weight than cost. The lot did not include options. The award was made under the Government Procurement Agreement framework coverage.

This award shows demand from a Scottish higher-education buyer for a substantial network monitoring technology purchase through a software value-added reseller framework. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this type would be established network monitoring specialists, software resellers or technology integrators able to supply a suitable tool and explain how it will meet operational requirements. The evaluation gives quality the leading role, so credibility would depend on a clear technical solution, reliable implementation and support arrangements, and evidence that the proposed product is fit for the buyer’s network environment. Suppliers also need to understand framework call-off routes and public-sector contracting, while maintaining commercially competitive pricing. The successful supplier was a large organisation, indicating the value of demonstrable delivery capacity.
