Notice Title

Government Print Project (GovPrint Project)

Notice Description

Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and Government Digital Service (GDS) are making an approach to the market in order to discuss and identify potential software solutions to deliver a cloud based managed print solution supporting a Software as a Service (SaaS) delivery model to Central Government. The requirement is for a software solution only supporting a SaaS delivery model; it does not include the provision of hardware and will not impact any live CCS commercial agreement. Project background GDS has been evaluating the requirement for general office (i.e. distributed fleet of printers and multi-functional devices) cloud printing across a range of central government departments and public bodies. This research has identified a number of common requirements across multiple organisations. Government departments want to: - Move to a consumption-based model for managed print services - Adopt a cloud first approach to delivering managed print services - Provide managed print services across multiple locations including shared office locations or locations managed by other departments - Provide managed print services to mobile workers and staff that work in multiple locations including shared office locations - Provide a secure managed print service. In addition to the above requirements there are an increasing number of buildings that host multiple government organisations and it is UK Government policy to implement more printing in shared locations. How to access further details of the project, research completed and how to register to participate in market engagement/RFI please see attachment: Additional Information Additional information: GDS together with CCS wish to engage with the market to share the GovPrint Concept Design and provide an opportunity for interested parties to provide feedback and comments.
