Summary of the contracting process

The University of the West of England has completed a procurement process for purchasing wide format paper under the OPELS Framework OFF3166NW. The procurement, categorised under the printing paper industry, was conducted through a 'Call-off from a framework agreement,' utilising a selective procurement method. The procurement stage has now reached the award phase, with the contract period starting on 7th August 2025 and concluding on 31st July 2026. The contract, valued at £30,000, will service the South West region of the United Kingdom.
