Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Stationery" tender by Essex County Council involved the provision of office stationery and supplies, including paper and furniture. This contract, procured via the National Public Sector Workplace Supplies and Services framework, was conducted through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The process has reached the award stage, with the contract now in effect from 13th November 2022 to 12th November 2025. The total value of the contract is £850,000, with goods to be delivered primarily in the East of England. The tender was suited to SMEs, though not specifically to VCSE entities. Key dates included the tender period ending on 21st October 2022 and the subsequent contract award dated 21st October 2022.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of office stationery and supplies. SMEs, in particular, would find this contract advantageous due to its large value and the framework mechanism which simplifies procurement processes. Companies that can provide a comprehensive range of office products will benefit from engaging with such frameworks, promoting steady business growth through public sector contracts. More broadly, suppliers with the capacity to meet the regional requirements of the East of England would also be well-positioned to compete successfully and demonstrate potential for long-term collaboration with public sector entities like Essex County Council.
