About
The University of Lincoln awarded a contract to Xeretec Office Systems Limited for the urgent provision of 100 laptops to support remote working for staff and online tuition for students during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The contract, valued at £113,692, was awarded under Regulation 32(c) due to extreme urgency caused by the pandemic, which prevented a competitive procedure.
The laptops were needed immediately as the University's current contracted supplier could not fulfill the order in a timely manner, and market supply was constrained by surging demand and production issues at major OEMs.
