Summary of the contracting process

The Newport City Council is currently facilitating a competitive procurement process through the Printing Services Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) aimed at various public sector organisations within South East Wales. This initiative allows for the procurement of printing services across three distinct lots: Commercial Low to High Volume Print, Digital Print, and Specialist Print and Finishing. The DPS is set to commence from 1st April 2021 and is anticipated to run for a minimum of four years, with a deadline for submissions on 28th March 2025. The total estimated value of the contract is £3,200,000, and it employs a selective procurement method under a restricted procedure to invite businesses to participate.

Companies that excel in marketing collateral, direct mail, and security printing would be particularly well-suited to compete within this procurement framework. Participation can not only enhance market visibility but also secure long-term contracts with various local authorities and public bodies, thus fostering potential growth in a competitive landscape.
