Summary of the contracting process

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) recently completed the procurement process for the "Supply of Envelopes" under the postal services category related to letters. The contracting process utilised a restricted procedure (above threshold), aimed at selectively inviting suppliers to tender. The contract, valued at £120,000, will run from January 1, 2025, to March 31, 2026. The award was officially published on January 27, 2025, with the successful supplier being Quadient UK Limited, based in London. The location for delivery of the services is Newport, Wales.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in postal and mailing services, particularly those experienced in handling large-scale governmental contracts. The selective nature of the procurement method underscores the importance of a proven track record and ability to meet stringent requirements. Large firms in the postal services industry are well-suited to compete for such opportunities, given the scale of operations and the financial capacity needed to fulfil the contract's demands.
