Technology Products and Associated Services 3

AI Summary

The Government Commercial Agency is launching a multi‑year, UK‑wide framework, known as Technology Products and Associated Services 3, to secure a broad range of off‑the‑shelf technology solutions. The framework covers end‑user computing devices—including laptops, mobiles, tablets, desktops, smartphones, monitors, printers, scanners, RFID readers and other human interface equipment—as well as infrastructure hardware such as servers, storage arrays, network switches, routers, backup systems, high‑performance computing nodes, cloud‑linking infrastructure and related security equipment. The framework also allows procurement of multifunction devices, mobile accessories such as MiFi routers and dongles, and technology‑enabled assistive products that enhance safety and health management in home settings. Hardware may be acquired outright, leased, delivered as a service or in a utility model, and the catalogue will include both new and refurbished items in alignment with circular IT practices.

Complementary to the hardware, the contract will procure commercial off‑the‑shelf and open‑source software packages, available in full‑box or subscription formats, together with a comprehensive suite of associated services. These services cover design, implementation, end‑user support, maintenance, imaging, warranty, service desk, installation, project management, training, leasing, security and asset management, network infrastructure oversight, device‑as‑a‑service provisions, data cleansing and recycling or disposal solutions that extend the life of devices. All purchased technology and support activities must meet Carbon Net Zero, Sustainability and Circular IT objectives.
