How to Read This Tender
- 1This is a goods supply contract, not a service — focus on delivery dates, quantities, and product specs rather than ongoing management.
- 2Look for the 'Specification' section in the full tender documents — it will list exact laptop models, RAM, storage, operating system, and any software bundled.
- 3Check 'Contract Terms' for warranty length, support response times, and who handles repairs/replacements.
- 4The 'Evaluation Criteria' section will show how bids are scored — typically price, delivery schedule, warranty, and possibly social value (local jobs, apprenticeships).
- 5October 2025 is a fixed deadline — confirm your supply chain can meet it before bidding.
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you're a laptop retailer or refurbisher, this is a direct fit. If you're not, consider teaming up with a supplier as a subcontractor — councils often welcome SME partnerships.
- Check if Hackney has any 'social value' scoring (environmental practices, local recruitment, apprenticeships) — this can help you compete against larger suppliers on non-price factors.
- Get clarification early on whether they want new, refurbished, or a mix — refurbished laptops can be more cost-competitive and environmentally attractive.
