Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Durham procured multifunctional devices (MFDs) for delivery and use in County Durham. The requirement is for photocopying and offset printing equipment, classified under CPV 30120000, and concerns the supply of goods rather than works or consultancy. The procurement was made under the CPC/KJ/01/2024 Framework Agreement. The named buying organisation is the Police and Crime Commissioner for Durham, a public body responsible for public order and safety. The selected supplier, Agilico Workplace Technologies (North) Ltd, is based in Gateshead. The requirement relates to one procurement lot, covering the MFD supply under the framework arrangement. The opportunity therefore suits businesses supplying multifunctional office printing and copying equipment to public-sector organisations in County Durham.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The contract was directly awarded under the CPC/KJ/01/2024 Framework Agreement, using a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The award was made on 14 August 2026 to Agilico Workplace Technologies (North) Ltd. The contract is valued at £400,000. It starts on 1 October 2026 and ends on 30 September 2031, with two optional 12-month extensions. Price was the stated award criterion. The procurement record shows one tenderer and one active award. The associated lot is marked cancelled, although the award and contract are recorded as active. The requirement was treated as outside the scope of the relevant directive.

This award demonstrates established demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Durham for multifunctional printing and copying equipment supplied through a public-sector framework. A future competitor would need to provide MFDs at an organisation-wide scale and understand how to serve a public body operating across County Durham. Credibility would include a proven ability to supply the relevant photocopying and offset printing equipment, work within framework terms, and compete primarily on price. Businesses should also be able to manage a long-term arrangement with optional extensions, maintain dependable supply over the contract lifecycle, and present clear, commercially competitive pricing. The incumbent is a large supplier, indicating that comparable competitors may need sufficient operational capacity and public-sector procurement experience to deliver a requirement of this scale.
