Multifunctional Devices (MFDs) and Managed Print Services - Lot 1

Notice Description

Lot 1 - Multifunctional Devices (MFDs) and Managed Print Services: The Digital Information & Technology Services (DITS) Team have appointed a managed print provider. The Corporation's current Managed Print service contract ends in March 2026. This contract covers City of London Corporation, City of London Police, Barbican, Libraries (including public printing), Schools and Print room with a print fleet of 540 devices deployed at around 34 post codes. The print volumes in many areas in the Corporation have reduced post pandemic while some have returned to pre-pandemic levels. The Project's objective is to procure a new Multifunctional Devices (MFDs) and Managed Print Services contract to replace the current contract. The initial duration of the contract is 5 years, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the term of the contract for up to 2 years in line with the published Terms and Conditions. Therefore, the total potential duration of the contract, including extensions, is 7 years.
