Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply and support of printers and multifunctional devices has been completed by Orbit Group Limited, a regional authority based in Coventry, United Kingdom. This tender, classified under office and computing machinery and supplies, involved a direct award to Toshiba TEC UK Imaging Systems Ltd., leveraging the PFH - Business Solutions Framework. The contract, concluded without prior publication for competition due to its limited nature, spans three years with a potential two-year extension, assisting Orbit in maximising the use of existing assets. The agreement was signed on 31 March 2026, with a total contract value of £225,000, covering delivery across various regions including UKC, UKD, UKE, and beyond.

The procurement of new print devices presents a targeted opportunity for Toshiba TEC UK, focusing on maintaining seamless operations within Orbit Group's infrastructure across the UK. Business growth is facilitated by enhancing service efficiency and continuity, specifically benefitting suppliers capable of providing high-quality office and computing machinery. Large enterprises with existing frameworks for quick deployment and support in diverse regions are particularly well-suited for such tenders, ensuring comprehensive service provision over the extended contract period. The strategic decision to continue with Toshiba minimises disruption and optimises cost-effectiveness given the existing device landscape.

Notice Title

Supply and Support of printers and MFD

Notice Description

Orbit are looking to replace 23 printers and multifunctional devices which have reached their end-of-life. We have decided to ask our incumbent supplier Toshiba for the replacements.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Direct award to Toshiba via PFH - Business Solutions Framework

Procurement Information

We have 85 Toshiba print devices across our estate. The contract is due to end in April 2026. 23 of the devices must be upgraded beyond April 26 due to changes in the SMTP settings that will affect the older floor standing devices in our offices and schemes. 62 of the devices, mainly desktop type in schemes, can continue to run for at least the next 3 years. There are clear advantages to remain with Toshiba. We only need to replace 23 devices instead of all 85 if we stay with the same provider.
