Notice Information
Notice Title
Replacement of End of Life Printers at Wigan Council
Notice Description
The existing stock of Multi-Functional Devices enable self-serve printing for staff managing service requests and for residents to use free of charge from local Libraries across the borough. The existing fleet of printing devices have reached the end of their serviceable life and are now out of software support. There is now an urgent business requirement to replace MFD's across the Council's estate. Due to further digital transformation anticipated across Council functions and the need for greater financial efficiency it is prudent to review current print arrangements and seek to reduce the overall number of MFD's in operation, whilst maintaining a customer facing function in Libraries for residents. This aligns with the ambition to better align with the Document Solutions service as part of an overall Print Policy. This is a direct award via the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) "Multifunctional Devices (MFDs), Print and Digital Workflow Software Services and Managed Print Software Provision framework" under lot 2 "Multifunctional Print Devices (MFDs) Print Management, Digital Workflow Software". This framework is a compliant route to market as the framework was established under Public Contract Regulations (2015).
