UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Norfolk Council and Broadland District Council have procured the services of Print Image Network Ltd for Election Print Services, intended to support the Electoral Services' annual canvass of electors and elections. The procurement, which falls under the services category, was conducted as a limited competition below the threshold. The contract includes printing and postal services related to electoral forms and is effective from 9th January 2026 to 1st January 2029, with optional extensions until 2031. Both councils are located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the Norwich area, while the supplier is based in Stockport. This procurement is guided by the Procurement Act 2023, ensuring a balanced focus on price, quality, and several management criteria.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses operating in the printing, postal services, and stationery management sectors to engage with local government projects. Enterprises that excel in capacity and account management, and are able to meet stringent data protection standards, would be particularly well-suited for similar tenders in the future. The emphasis on quality over price signifies an advantageous environment for businesses that can offer comprehensive service solutions. As such, SMEs like Print Image Network Ltd, which ultimately secured this contract, can harness such opportunities for growth and maintain a strong foothold in public sector contracts.
