Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council has completed a public procurement process titled "CPU 8099 Mailroom Services - Franking Machines Lease" within the "Post and courier services" industry. This contract involved the supply of a comprehensive range of franking machines and mailroom equipment, acquired under the CCS framework RM 6280 Postal Services & Solutions, aiming to enhance mailroom operations in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement, which was a call-off from a framework agreement, entered the award stage on 5th May 2026, and the contract is set to run from 15th June 2026 until 30th June 2029 with a total value of £216,000.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies capable of supplying mailroom solutions. The contract was selectively procured to ensure an efficient award, making it particularly appealing to SMEs, though it was won by Quadient UK Ltd.
