Summary of the contracting process

The Hampshire County Council has recently concluded the tender process for a framework agreement titled "Framework for the Supply of Print and Related Services", encompassing print finishing, specialist print, graphic display items, promotional merchandise, labels and stickers, and artwork processing for the County Supplies Catalogue. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure, commencing with the tender notice published on 20th October 2025, and proceeding to awards in January 2026. Located in the UKJ3 region, this extensive framework is categorised under the 'Printed matter and related products' industry and is set to run from 1st February 2026 to 31st January 2030. Multiple lots were awarded to various suppliers, indicating a multi-supplier engagement strategy to enhance competition and value.

This framework presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, given the diverse range of print-related services required under the contract. With a substantial total contract value, companies with expertise in print and associated services are well-positioned to benefit. This framework supports wide participation, signalling opportunity for organisations across different sectors including education, local authorities, and charities. While the primary procurement category is goods, the emphasis on competitive bids based on advantageous tenders implies favourable conditions for those offering quality and cost-effective solutions.
