Overview
Scottish Procurement intends to establish a national collaborative framework for the provision of Desktop Client Devices and supporting supplies and services for the Scottish public sector. The current single supplier framework is due to expire on 31 August 2027.
Scottish Procurement intends to establish a national collaborative framework for the provision of Desktop Client Devices and supporting services for the Scottish public sector. The framework will primarily provide a core range of desktop computer devices with a range of associated supplies and services.
Scottish Procurement currently has an established national collaborative framework for Mobile Client Devices which provides laptops, notebooks and similar portable devices, again with a range of associated supplies and services. This framework is currently due to end in November 2027 but has extension options for a further 24 months and can potentially continue until November 2029.
Additional details
Scottish Procurement is taking the opportunity to determine if combining the Desktop and Mobile Client Device frameworks is viable or desirable, and accordingly, we are seeking the supply market views on this potential route. Please note the estimated value is purely for the Desktop Client Device framework. Additional information: Please see the attached request for information letter for further information.
