A phased approach is being taken on the future collaborative procurement of the client device portfolio. Initial tendering will focus on reletting the existing IT hardware frameworks for Thin Client Devices and Web Based and Proprietary Client Devices. We have started engaging with stakeholders and are now seeking market views. To support this we recently issued a Prior Information Notice (PIN) and Request for Information (RFI).

What’s in scope:

• The Thin Client Device Framework will provide a range of thin client devices and operating systems
• The Web Based and Proprietary Client Device Framework will provide a range of web based and proprietary client devices
• Both frameworks will also include a range of accessories and all services associated with the deployment of the devices

We want views and comments from suppliers interested in participating – particularly on the technology, community benefits, commercial arrangements and sustainability.

Suppliers should read the PIN and complete the RFI document. Please send your RFI response (preferably in Microsoft Word format) to Karen Pow and Sarah Hamilton by Tuesday 30 April 2019.

For additional information please see our contracts directory. Alternatively please contact Karen Pow (0131 244 8121) or Sarah Hamilton (0131 244 3435).
