Notice Title

KCL-00000996 Printing & related services

Notice Description

King's College London is seeking to appoint a number of Suppliers for the Print Framework Agreement in accordance with EU Regulations. The selected Supplier(s) will need to have service flexibility and capacity to accommodate varying demands for service, high volume work and rush jobs at all times of the year. A clear commitment from the selected Suppliers is that they will be required to work with the university as a partner over the full contract period to ensure evolving requirements remain fully satisfied. Various Faculties and Professional Services departments across King's are responsible for the design and delivery of high quality documents in print, on the Internet, on the intranet and on the virtual campus to client departments across the university consistent with corporate standards. The institution does not, however, have its own print production facilities. King's currently produces print via the following methods: a) Self-produced on distributed copier/printers within the academic and administrative departments (please note that this section does not form part of the Framework Agreement). b) A diverse range of miscellaneous digital and Litho printed products which support both the university's administration (artwork often produced in-house by King's staff) and its promotional and reputational outputs. Artwork for the latter is produced off site by the King's Designers (also set up on Framework Agreements) and is procured by individuals in their departments and faculties across the university's five campuses as required. This includes marketing materials, core corporate publications, events collateral, magazines, leaflets, flyers, large format, promo items etc. Additional information: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/aboutkings/orgstructure/ps/procurement/suppliers/etender.aspx Delivery Notes Mostly London Funding Type (WEFO or EU) : College funding Funding Description From various College budgets Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : Yes
