Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council has concluded the stationery supplies contract for the Tameside Council offices, following a direct award process utilising the CCS Framework Contract. This procurement falls within the 'goods' category under the CPV classification for stationery and covers a two-year term from 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2027, with provisions to extend annually for up to two additional years. The procurement method was limited, and the process was completed without prior publication of a call for competition, deemed to fall outside the scope of the directive. The contract was signed with Banner Group Ltd on 24 February 2026, securing a deal valued at £108,000.

For businesses in the stationery supply sector, this contract presents opportunities for future engagement with the council, especially for those equipped to offer competitive pricing and reliable delivery within the specified UKD region. Large companies such as Banner Group Ltd, with the capacity to supply consistently and at scale, would be particularly well-suited to compete in similar public procurement opportunities given the council's strategic partnership through established frameworks and direct awards.
