Summary of the contracting process

The recent contracting process, managed by the Crown Commercial Service on behalf of the Cabinet Office, involved the award for the provision of Command & House Papers. The contract pertains to the print-plate making services industry, with the process completed under the 'award' stage. The procurement method was 'selective', specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The awarded contract, valued at £1,640,000, spans from 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2028, covering regions throughout the United Kingdom, including Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and various English regions. H H Associates Limited has been selected as the supplier, with relevant notices and documentation available on Contracts Finder.

This procurement process offers an essential growth opportunity for businesses involved in print and publishing services, particularly those with existing framework agreements or the capability to participate in selective procurement methods. Companies experienced in working with government contracts and capable of delivering high-volume print-plate services across multiple regions in the UK are well-positioned to benefit from opportunities similar to this. Though the process is not specifically earmarked for SMEs or VCSEs, it underscores the value of alliances and capabilities in servicing public sector needs efficiently.
