SCC is Dell’s exclusive NDNA reseller across all three framework lots — providing UK universities and colleges with a single, compliant route to Dell desktops, notebooks and end‑user computing services.

Through its exclusive NDNA appointment, SCC removes that complexity, giving education leaders assured access to Dell technology alongside flexible commercial models, guaranteed availability and end‑to‑end delivery services.
“SCC has demonstrated a clear understanding of the public sector’s challenges and how to help institutions get the most from Dell technology. Its appointment as our exclusive NDNA reseller will strengthen our engagement across higher education and ensure customers receive consistent, high‑quality service.”
-Tariq Hussian, Head of Public Sector, Dell Technologies

Through the NDNA framework, SCC provide education institutions with flexible access to Dell’s award-winning product portfolio through Lots 1 (Desktops), 2 (Notebooks), and 3 (One-Stop Shop), while delivering enhanced services, support, and deployment capabilities under the agreement:
Flexible Payment Solutions
Our “buy now, pay later” model lets you secure Dell devices early without upfront capital, protecting budgets and accelerating rollout timelines.
Guaranteed Stockholding and 6 Month Warranty Extension
SCC can hold Dell stock on your behalf, ensuring rapid fulfilment during peak demand. In the current climate, this enables you to reduce project delays caused by supply chain volatility. With guaranteed stockholding, avoid market shortages and guarantee device availability exactly when each department or campus requires it.
SCC can provide you with 6 months stockholding completely free of charge along with a warranty extension for up to 6 months to cover the storage period also free of charge. This is an exclusive benefit when buying Dell devices through SCC.
