Summary of the contracting process

Ordnance Survey Limited procured promotional merchandise services for use across its organisation. The requirement covers the sourcing, production and fulfilment of Ordnance Survey-branded promotional merchandise, including items from a pre-approved core range and bespoke products. The service is intended to centralise and govern the merchandise process, supporting brand consistency, sustainable materials, cost efficiency and alignment with the organisation’s brand strategy. It also includes a structured approval and ordering workflow. The work is delivered across the United Kingdom. This is a services opportunity for promotional merchandise suppliers, branded goods specialists, sourcing and production partners, and fulfilment providers able to manage both standardised ranges and made-to-order branded items.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Allwag Promotions Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The award was made on 29 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £90,000 excluding VAT, or £108,000 including VAT. The contract is active. Ordnance Survey used a below-threshold limited competition, rather than an open procedure. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and the published outcome records the supplier’s responsibility for delivering the promotional merchandise service across the United Kingdom.

This award provides a clear example of Ordnance Survey’s demand for a managed, organisation-wide promotional merchandise service rather than isolated product supply. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to source and produce branded goods, fulfil orders reliably across the United Kingdom, and support both a controlled core range and bespoke items. Capability in sustainable materials, brand governance, approval workflows and centralised ordering would be important, alongside the operational capacity to manage production, stock or order coordination and delivery. The procurement also shows that Ordnance Survey has used a below-threshold limited competition route, so suppliers should be able to present a focused, compliant offer suited to a controlled competitive process.
