Summary of the contracting process

Hopwood Hall College bought stationery supplies for its education operations. The requirement covers general stationery and related paper and education supplies under the CPC Stationery, Paper and Education Supplies Framework, Lot 1. The buying organisation is Hopwood Hall College, with delivery associated with its Rochdale Campus in England. The procurement is categorised as goods and concerns stationery supplies (CPV 30192700). The recorded delivery scope includes the United Kingdom and a Rochdale postcode, as well as wider locations including Europe, the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award under the CPC Stationery, Paper and Education Supplies Framework, Lot 1. The framework had one appointed supplier, allowing a direct award in line with its provisions. The contract was awarded to Banner on 25 August 2026 for £100,000. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. The tender had a submission deadline of 25 August 2026. The procurement’s estimated value was £100,000 including the recorded currency of GBP. The outcome is an active award to Banner, and the tender status is complete. No separate competitive evaluation criteria are recorded for this direct award.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for ongoing stationery supply at a college, covering general stationery together with paper and education supplies. Suppliers with a dependable catalogue, sourcing arrangements and fulfilment operation for routine education-sector stationery would be well placed to address a future requirement of this type. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so the opportunity is not limited to large national providers. Credibility would also depend on understanding the CPC framework route, including the relevant stationery lot and its direct-award rules, because the buyer used that route rather than running a new open competition. Reliable delivery to the college’s Rochdale base and the wider stated delivery scope would be commercially relevant.
