UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust procured a managed print service rental under the title “Print Service”. The requirement covers rented print equipment and associated managed printing and related services for the Trust. The procurement is categorised as services, with the stated classification covering printing and related services. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, for the Trust’s operations at Clatterbridge Cancer Centre in Bebington, Wirral. This is relevant to suppliers providing managed print services, printer and copier rental, print fleet management, consumables and associated support for NHS or other public-sector organisations. The named buyer is The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust, a public authority responsible for the requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a direct procedure below the relevant threshold, without competition, with one completed lot. RICOH UK LIMITED received the award, which is active. The contract was signed on 1 June 2026 and runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 August 2026. Its value is £31,339.18 excluding VAT, or £37,607.02 including VAT. The published outcome records a single supplier and does not show a competitive evaluation process. The requirement therefore demonstrates a below-threshold direct award for a managed print service rental, rather than an open tender with bids assessed against stated price, quality or technical criteria.

This award is useful market evidence for suppliers targeting NHS managed print requirements. A credible competitor would need to provide a complete managed print rental service, combining suitable printing equipment with the operational support and related printing services needed by a cancer centre. The incumbent is a large supplier with an established UK presence, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider able to deliver at organisational scale. Suppliers with experience supporting public-sector or healthcare environments, reliable service operations, equipment rental capability and the ability to manage an ongoing print estate would be well placed when this requirement is next considered. The direct, below-threshold route also shows that smaller requirements may be bought without a competitive procedure.
