38% of The Department of Finance’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

The Department of Finance - IT Assist wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for Disposal Services for IT equipment, electronic and electrical equipment for use by the Northern Ireland Public Sector including Northern Ireland Civil Service Departments, Agencies and Non Departmental Public Bodies.

Unauthorised disclosure of information / sensitive data is a major risk mainly due to the increasing dependence on electronic storage systems and the use of disposable media.

Organisations have therefore developed asset disposal strategies that can require data to be deleted from media and equipment sometimes prior to its permanent removal from site for disposal and/or recycling or for assured data destruction.

The framework therefore seeks to appoint Suppliers to; securely and irreversibly delete data from a range of media either on the customer’s premises or offsite; and securely and legally dispose of redundant information and communications technology equipment and media.

Once the Framework Agreement has been established, secondary competitions will be completed for each disposal required.

The Framework period is for 4 years.

For further details regarding the requirement, please refer to document entitled 'ID 4901529 – Framework Specification'.

Matched against the notice text, so this is a floor — the tender pack will demand things the notice never mentions. “Says must” means the quoted sentence itself used obligation language; anything ambiguous is left as a mention.
