Datapac ULC is the named winner of the Windows notebook computer procurement for the Department of Social Protection recorded under the Office of Government Procurement. The award is dated 13 October 2026 and carries €5,000,000 estimated value (framework ceiling).

The returned lot title identifies Lot 1 and refers to Windows desktop computers, Windows notebook computers and associated ICT peripherals. The title is truncated in the available record, so it does not establish the complete supply scope. The procurement title specifically identifies Windows notebooks for the Department.

What the figure does not establish

The available detail does not provide a bid count or award criteria. It therefore cannot support a comparison of competing offers or explain how the winner was scored. Nor does the framework ceiling establish actual expenditure or the number of devices ordered.

This report draws on TenderMatch’s recent awards query and the detailed record for notice 9298775. The value classification is retained as recorded, with no conversion of the framework ceiling into contract spend.
