Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concerns the award of the RM3799 Specialist Courier Services framework, initiated by the Crown Commercial Service. This framework is designed for UK public sector bodies and includes six individual lots for the provision of specialist courier services. The contract has a total estimated value of £400 million and will span an initial period of three years, with an option for a one-year extension. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 5 June 2017 and the start of the contract on 17 August 2017, ending on 17 August 2020. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, allowing various suppliers to compete.

This framework presents considerable opportunities for businesses specialising in courier and logistical services, particularly those that can manage diverse delivery requirements across various locations including the UK and overseas territories. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the framework is structured to allow competitive bidding for any combination of the available lots. Firms that can demonstrate the capability to meet the specifications of the public sector will find this an advantageous opportunity for growth and expansion within the government contracting landscape.

Notice Information

Notice Title

RM3799 Specialist Courier Services

Notice Description

Crown Commercial Service (the Authority) has put in place a Pan Government Collaborative Framework Agreement for use by UK public sector bodies (see list attached to this Notice), and any future successors to these organisations, which include Central Government Departments and their Arm's Length Bodies and Agencies, Non Departmental Public Bodies, NHS bodies and Local Authorities. This Procurement has established a multi Supplier public sector Framework Agreement for the purchase of Specialist Courier Services. The Framework Agreement compromises 6 individual Lots. The Authority reserved the right for Contracting Authorities to hold an electronic auction during further competition prior to an award of a contract. The Framework Agreement shall be for an initial period of three (3) years; the Authority may extend the duration of the Framework Agreement for any period up to a maximum of one (1) year. Potential Providers had the opportunity to bid for one, all or any combination of the Lots. Additional information: Previously we published an Opportunity Notice on Contracts Finder, which can be accessed via this link: www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/1b8181f1-70cd-46eb-82f4-8e5448ebce76?p=@RPT0=NjJNT08=UFQxUlR The relevant OJEU Contract Notice (together with its Corrigendum) has been provided as an attachment to this Award Notice, for the convenience of users. Please note: Financial values stated in this Award Notice are estimates: Crown Commercial Service does not guarantee any Supplier a minimum level of business or any business through this Framework Agreement. This Framework Agreement is for a duration of 3 years, which the stated Contract End Date reflects. However, Crown Commercial Service has the option to extend for a further period, not exceeding one (1) year, at the end of the 3 years. The duration is the time available for Contracting Authorities to place orders.
