## Summary

South Lanarkshire Council bought desktop client devices and associated requirements to support its council services, ICT infrastructure, and frontline and corporate operations. The requirement is for reliable, secure, fit-for-purpose desktop computing equipment used across the organisation. Delivery is for the Council in Hamilton and the wider South Lanarkshire area. This is a goods procurement for desktop computers and related equipment, classified under CPV 30213300. The Council is the buying organisation and also acts as a central purchasing body. The requirement covers ongoing supply rather than a separate installation, software development or managed IT service. Suppliers specialising in business desktop hardware, secure end-user computing equipment and the associated supply arrangements would be relevant to this type of requirement.

The procurement is complete: South Lanarkshire Council awarded the contract to HP Inc UK Limited on 10 September 2026, and the contract is active. The contract value is £350,000. It runs from 10 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. There was one electronic bid, and the award relates to a single lot. The Council used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, making a direct award under the Desktop Client Devices Framework SP-22-019. The framework provided pre-approved suppliers and established terms. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The stated route was a framework call-off, with the contract awarded on the basis of the existing framework arrangements rather than an open competition for this requirement.

This award shows that South Lanarkshire Council has recurring demand for standardised desktop client devices to support both corporate services and frontline operations. A credible future supplier would need to provide dependable, secure business desktops at organisational scale, with the product range and supply capacity to maintain availability across a public-sector estate. Experience of supplying councils or similarly distributed organisations would help demonstrate understanding of operational continuity, device consistency and public-sector requirements. Suppliers would also need to work within established framework terms or secure a place on an appropriate compliant framework, since this purchase was made through a framework call-off rather than an open tender. The successful profile is therefore a large, established desktop manufacturer or an authorised technology reseller with dependable distribution and public-sector contracting capability.
