Summary of the contracting process

The London Metropolitan University recently completed a procurement process for "Stationary Supplies" under the industry category of office supplies (CPV code 30192000). This procurement, initiated on 6th January 2025 and awarded to LYRECO UK LIMITED, followed a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract, valued at £60,000, is aimed at the provision of various office supplies across the UK. This procurement falls outside the scope of the directive regulations, ensuring compliance through the use of the YPO framework agreement. The procurement process has now advanced to the award stage, and the contract is currently active as of 28th February 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in office supplies, particularly those capable of operating within a large-scale framework agreement. Companies that can provide competitive pricing and reliable delivery to various UK locations would be well-positioned to benefit from such contracts. The direct award through the YPO framework also highlights the importance of being part of recognised procurement groups, which can streamline the award process and open doors to future tender opportunities with public institutions like the London Metropolitan University.
