Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "YPO 1207 - Book Coverings, Note Pads & Envelopes" has been conducted by YPO, a public buying organisation based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. This open procedure focused on the industry category of printed matter and related products. With the framework designed mainly for the education market, it facilitates deliveries directly to YPO's distribution centre and customers across the United Kingdom and internationally. The tender, which was published on 19th December 2024, concluded with an award on 23rd May 2025. The contract period spans from 23rd May 2025 to 22nd May 2029, valued at £9,600,000 GBP.

This framework agreement creates significant opportunities for both large enterprises and SMEs in the printed matter industry, especially those specialising in book coverings, notepads, and envelopes. With suppliers like Blake Envelopes, Exaclair Ltd, and others awarded contracts, businesses have the potential to grow by tapping into YPO’s educational market reach. SMEs and VCSEs are particularly encouraged, given the framework's suitability criteria, to explore expansions in supply chain capabilities or enter new markets through direct delivery models.
