Gear changes pretty quickly so specifics are going to be incorrect as fast.

Koha isn't very demanding in terms of CPU or disk but there is a
database and a search service and so having a good amount of memory is
always nice.

I'm assuming that for a company library you won't be seeing a lot of
traffic so the main interest is for it to perform nicely under low
load.

Without getting too precise, it can work well on pretty low end gear
but more can be better. If you're buying new then midrange or budget
conscious is probably safe.
