Summary of the contracting process

Essex County Council is seeking to establish a new Print Services Framework valued at £85 million for a duration of four years, commencing on 23rd August 2018. This initiative is part of a selective tendering process aimed at finding a single supplier capable of delivering a range of expert print, reprographics, and scanning services. The tender was officially completed on 31st July 2018, and the key procurement stage currently recognised is the award of the contract, which has been granted to Paragon Service Point, effective until 22nd August 2022. The services will primarily be utilised in the East of England region.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses operating within the printing and related services industry. Companies that specialise in high-quality print production, reprographics, and document scanning could find considerable avenues for growth by positioning themselves as competitive suppliers. Given that the tender was designed for a singular large-scale supplier, it may also favour established businesses with the capacity to manage extensive service contracts while ensuring compliance with the rigorous standards expected by public sector contracts.
