UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

HM Land Registry procured nationwide courier collection and delivery services between its offices and postal addresses across the UK. The requirement covers same-day delivery, with collection and delivery before midnight, plus business and residential next-day services with delivery by 9am, 12pm, 5pm or in the evening. It also includes a premium service for consignments requiring exceptional handling and care. The supplier must provide a range of vehicle types and sizes and transport a broad range of next-day consignments. This is a public-sector logistics and courier services requirement, classified under CPV 64120000. HM Land Registry is the buying organisation, and delivery activity covers locations throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to The Royal Mail Group following a competitive award under the GCA RM6354 Courier, Distribution, Storage and Specialist Solutions framework, Lot 3a. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026, with an initial term from 8 September 2026 to 7 September 2029 and an optional 12-month extension, giving a maximum end date of 7 September 2030. The awarded value is £179,583.33 excluding VAT, or £215,500 including VAT; these are expected spend levels rather than guaranteed volumes or expenditure. The award was made on 19 August 2026. One completed lot was awarded, and the contract is active. The published performance measure requires consignment quotations within 12 hours of a buyer request.

This requirement demonstrates demand for a UK-wide courier partner able to operate a reliable multi-service collection and delivery network for a central government customer. Credible competitors would need coverage across all UK nations, capacity for same-day and time-critical next-day consignments, and the operational control to meet several delivery windows. They would also need a mixed vehicle fleet, the flexibility to handle consignments of different sizes and types, and processes that protect items requiring premium handling. The winning supplier’s framework-based route shows the importance of qualifying for relevant public-sector purchasing arrangements and competing effectively through them. Strong quotation management is also important: suppliers should be able to respond to service requests within 12 hours while maintaining consistent service quality and clear performance reporting.
