CP1995-20 Hardware (Laptops and Peripherals) Contract

Devon County Council (DCC) invited tender submissions from industry accredited technology suppliers for replacement of our existing IT Hardware contract which is finishing at the end of 2021.

Devon is undertaking a corporate-wide Transformation programme and as part of this programme there is a Digital Transformation stream which involves the use and implementation of Microsoft led technology. The scope of which will encompass a complete refresh of our end user compute estate via a Device Replacement project using Microsoft Managed Desktop (MMD) devices.

The Authority also requires the supplier to deliver devices to employees homes or satellite locations and so this project will require project management, administration, logistics and user support to ensure that staff receive the most appropriate device types, that these are efficiently delivered, that staff are supported to ensure they immediately benefit from the new devices, and that ‘legacy’ (i.e. currently deployed, ‘old’) devices are recovered and disposed of, including the secure disposal of any persistent data storage media. The Council therefore also wants to procure support services to assist in the successful implement of the Project.

The Procurement is being procured by the Authority for the benefit of the Authority and maybe used by Partner Organisation - The Devon & Cornwall Procurement Partnership (D&CPP). No Partner business is guaranteed for this contract.
