Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office has initiated a contract for the provision of medals and insignia, classified under the CPV code for medals, with the procurement process primarily centred on goods. This contract is an extension of an existing call-off agreement, now expiring on 31st July 2026, to allow the continued supply of these items while a new framework agreement is established. The contract, delivered within the UK, is currently in the award stage, having been signed on 2nd October 2024 with Worcestershire Medal Service Limited as the chosen supplier. The total contract value is £453,270 GBP, covering a period of 660 days. The contracting process follows the legal basis of Directive 2014/24/EU, under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in the manufacturing and supply of medals and insignia, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Worcestershire Medal Service Limited, who was awarded the contract. UK-based companies with capabilities in producing bespoke award items will find this a lucrative prospect due to the ongoing demand facilitated by the Cabinet Office, a prominent governmental body. Businesses capable of meeting technical specifications and maintaining sufficient supply levels amidst regulatory frameworks will be well-positioned to grow their footprint in public sector contracting.
