Summary of the contracting process

Chichester District Council, acting through Hampshire County Council, has completed the procurement process for the lease, supply, and maintenance of multi-functional devices by awarding a contract to Ricoh UK Limited. This four-year agreement, managed under the KCS Y20031 framework, focuses on office automation equipment specifically tailored for the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is at the 'Award' level as of 5th February 2026, with the contract set to commence on 1st January 2026 and conclude on 31st December 2029. The procurement method was selective via a call-off from a framework agreement, ensured for high efficiency and compliance with industry standards.

This contract presents considerable growth opportunities for large-scale companies specialising in office automation services and solutions. Those equipped to provide comprehensive maintenance and support services, including quick response times and manufacturer-certified engineering support, are well-placed to compete. The focus on enhanced security measures and upgraded software solutions may also attract businesses keen to demonstrate proficiency in integrating advanced technological frameworks. Although small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were not the target, future tenders in similar frameworks might offer inclusive participation possibilities.
