Summary of the contracting process

Sunderland City Council has awarded a contract under the "NEPO502 Office, Educational & Catering Supplies" procurement process. The contract is for Lot 1, which relates to general office supplies. This is part of the NEPO 502 Framework Agreement, designed to supply office, educational, and catering supplies. The procurement was conducted using a selective procurement method, specifically below the threshold for awards under a framework, and was completed as of 21 May 2026. The contract, valued at £240,000, runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2030, with delivery required in the UKC23 region.

This procurement offers a significant opportunity for suppliers in the office supplies sector, particularly those capable of engaging in framework agreements. It could be beneficial for large suppliers like Lyreco UK Limited, who has successfully been awarded the contract, seeking long-term, stable business through public sector engagements. Companies specialising in office supplies and located within the United Kingdom, particularly near the Sunderland area, would find this contract advantageous for growth and establishing a strong foothold in the public sector supply chain.
