FOI reference - FOI-366

Request
I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act regarding the IT asset disposal/recycling contract(s) held by The Pensions Regulator.
Specifically, I am seeking the following details:
- The renewal date for the IT asset disposal/recycling contract(s).
- Whether the contract goes through a formal tender process, and if so, what the process entails.
- The annual net spend for this contract.
- The current incumbent or supplier providing IT asset disposal/recycling services under
this contract.
Response
I confirm that we hold the information you have requested.
- 6 July 2027.
- This was a closed competition tender process, appropriate and applicable to the below threshold value of the contract. The Commercial team initially undertook analysis of the market and identified several relevant waste suppliers within the Sussex locality to invite to a mini-tender process.
- To date it appears we are yet to use these services, so the net spend is currently £0. This contract was put in place as an ad-hoc agreement to be used when required with no guaranteed attributed spend. The maximum budget is £9,000 for the duration of the contract. This does not represent an annual cost.
