Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dorset Council is seeking insights from potential suppliers regarding its tender titled "Print and Associated Services." This procurement process falls under the printed matter and related products industry category, and it is currently in the planning stage. Interested suppliers are invited to participate in a pre-market engagement survey, which must be completed by 8 September 2021. The initiative will help the Council understand the current market dynamics before formal tendering occurs later this year, with additional contract details still to be determined.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the printing and display services sector, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary sector organisations (VSOs). Given the focus on gathering market insights, businesses that provide innovative print solutions or have the capacity to deliver high-quality printed materials are encouraged to engage in this early stage of the procurement process. By participating in the survey, businesses can position themselves favourably for future contract opportunities with Dorset Council.
