Summary of the contracting process

CPS procured courier services under the title Provision of DX Courier Services. The requirement covers postal and courier delivery for CPS, with deliveries to the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe and the rest of the world. This is a services contract rather than a goods or construction opportunity. The scope indicates a broad geographic delivery network, including international and overseas destinations. Businesses relevant to this requirement are courier, parcel, postal and logistics operators able to provide delivery services across the UK and internationally, including destinations with different transport, customs and service arrangements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to DX Network Services Limited on 1 April 2026. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 24 March 2026. The awarded contract value is £553,840 excluding VAT, covering the period from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The award is active. CPS is the buyer and DX Network Services Limited is the selected supplier. The opportunity was treated as a services procurement and was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award basis is not stated in the available procurement details.

This award demonstrates CPS demand for a managed courier and postal service with coverage extending from the UK to Europe, overseas territories, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and destinations worldwide. A future competitor would need a delivery network capable of handling domestic and international consignments across this range, with the operational capacity to provide consistent service for a public sector customer. The requirement is most relevant to established courier, postal or logistics businesses rather than small local delivery firms. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate reliable cross-border operations, broad geographic reach and the scale needed to manage a substantial annual service requirement through a framework call-off route.
