The project involves the outsourcing of printing, enveloping, and fulfilment of outbound mail, allowing council staff to send letters and documents electronically to a provider who handles the physical mail. Classified under the CPV code 79571000, this service procurement follows a selective method by calling off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to PSL Print Management Ltd for a value of £660,000 and covers the period from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2030.

This contract offers growth opportunities mainly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) experienced in mailing services, particularly those capable of integrating secure electronic solutions with physical mail services. As the procurement was done under a framework agreement, businesses already on this framework or those looking to expand into public sector services may find this opportunity appealing. The contract's focus on service delivery in the South East of the United Kingdom provides a regional growth avenue for specialised mailing service providers aiming to enhance their presence in the public procurement space.
