Decision:

Award of tender to be made to Specialist Computer Centres and Computacenter (UK) Limited for the provision of PCs, Laptops, Monitors & Tablets following an open and fair procurement process on behalf of North Lincolnshire Council.

Reasons for the decision:

A compliant competitive procurement exercise was
undertaken by Crown Commercial Services (CCS) with a
Call Off competition under their Technology Products and
Associated Services Commercial Agreement (RM6068) Lot 2
Hardware & Associated Services. An aggregated eAuction
was completed under Lot 2 which North Lincolnshire Council
submitted requirements for Lots 2. 3. 7. 1(b) & 8 (a).
Responses were checked for completeness and clarified
where necessary. The bids were evaluated and met the
required criteria on cost and quality. The tender offered value for money pricing.

Alternative options considered:

Not awarding would put the council in breach of The Public
Contract Regulations 2015 as an Exception to the CPRs to
extend the already expired contract would be required as
there is no time to conduct a new procurement.
