How many laptop tenders and contracts are there in the UK public sector?

To date the Stotles corpus holds 683 laptop-related notices: 553 awarded, 109 closed and 21 at pre-tender stage. The mix is dominated by refresh and replacement notices rather than one-off purchases, and most are call-offs against an existing framework rather than standalone competitions.

What counts as a laptop tender?

Notices covering outright purchase, multi-year leasing, and managed device-as-a-service deals for laptops, alongside refresh and replacement programmes for existing hardware estates. A number also bundle laptops with desktops or tablets under a single device contract, so the corpus includes some mixed-device notices as well as laptop-only ones.

Do laptop contracts run through frameworks?

Many do. Several notices in the corpus are call-offs against Crown Commercial Service's RM6098 technology products agreement, and others sit under NHS Shared Business Services device frameworks. Buyers use these to avoid running a full competition for what is usually a routine hardware refresh.

Are laptop contracts usually leased or purchased outright?

Both appear in the corpus. Outright purchase notices for a set number of units sit alongside multi-year operating leases and managed device-as-a-service deals, where a supplier handles procurement, delivery and lifecycle replacement for a fixed term.
