Purchases made under the framework will mainly be for end user IT hardware and peripheral IT items which are expected to include, but not be limited to; tablets, laptops, mobile/smart phones, desktop computers, monitors, projectors, TVs, thin clients, mice, cables and keyboards. From time to time, HHT may also purchase any other IT hardware items under the framework that may be needed to meet the needs of the organisation (e.g. interactive audio visual equipment).

Whilst the framework will primarily be used for the purchase and delivery of IT hardware, auxiliary services associated with the provision of IT hardware may also be purchased under the framework. These services may include, but not be limited to; hardware installation, configuration, repairs and recycling. From time to time, HHT may also purchase operating system software and licenses from successful suppliers under the framework.

Purchases are expected to mainly be off a product catalogue, the first version of which bidders priced for as part of the tender. Products not contained within this catalogue may also be purchased under this framework.

The outcome of the tender was a 4 year framework agreement, awarded to 7 suppliers. Of the successful bidders, 5 are SMEs and none are VCSEs.
