Summary of the contracting process

NS&I, operating out of London, has completed the awarding stage for its procurement process titled "Courier and Specialist Movements". This tender, classified under the "Courier services" industry category, encompasses efficient, secure, and tracked collection and delivery of documents and small parcels, targeting regions like Yorkshire and the Humber alongside UK-wide locations including National Savings and Investments office sites. The procurement followed a selective method, utilising a call-off from a framework agreement, and culminated in key dates such as the tender period ending on 26th January 2026 and the contract running from 10th February 2026 to 9th February 2028.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, fostering prospects for courier service providers adept in multi-modal, mail, and parcel delivery services. Large enterprises capable of handling comprehensive logistics solutions across varied locations stand in excellent stead to benefit from this contract. The procurement, though not initially seeking bidders from SMEs or VCSEs, saw CitySprint (UK) Limited, a large-scale supplier, successfully awarded the contract valued at £40,000, demonstrating potential for seasoned businesses to compete effectively in similar procurement settings. Businesses with robust logistics networks could use this tender to extend their market presence, securing high-profile engagements in the public sector.
