The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons is initiating a public procurement process titled "Storage and Fulfilment for Participation," which falls under the services category, specifically targeting storage, warehousing, and mailing services. The process is currently in the planning stage, with a milestone requiring expressions of interest (EOI) to be submitted by 21 January 2026 through the Atamis e-tendering portal.
