UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Fenland District Council has completed the award stage of a procurement process for the "Multi Functional Devices (MFD)" contract aimed at supporting and maintaining their specialised printers and scanners. The contracting process was initiated through a direct procurement method, specifically below threshold without competition, highlighting a tailored approach to meet specific needs. Located in March, United Kingdom, the council seeks to extend the life of their machines through to 2028, mitigating the need for a replacement programme. The contract commenced on 17 April 2026 and is set to run until 31 August 2028, with an estimated annual value of £18,500 plus VAT. The industry category focuses on photocopier repair and maintenance services.

This contract provides significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in office equipment maintenance and support services. With Aurora Managed Services Ltd being awarded the contract, it demonstrates potential for large-scale suppliers that offer reliable service capability in the photocopier repair and maintenance sector. Opportunities abound for businesses capable of providing high-quality service solutions that extend the operational life of existing capital equipment, positioning themselves as key partners in public authority service provisions.
