UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Staffordshire District Council procured election printing services for its electoral activities. The requirement covers the production of electoral forms and associated printing and related services, classified under CPV 22821000 and CPV 79800000. The buying organisation is South Staffordshire District Council, based in Codsall, Staffordshire. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The procurement is a service rather than a goods supply or construction project, and the published scope is focused specifically on election-related printed materials. The requirement was organised as a single lot and was fulfilled by a specialist mail and print business, indicating a need for a supplier able to combine print production with the handling and fulfilment of electoral paperwork.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Impact Mail & Print UK Ltd. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and runs from 3 September 2026 to 1 January 2029. A 12-month extension may be exercised, with the maximum contract end date stated as 1 January 2030. The contract has a gross value of £100,000. The awarded supplier is Impact Mail & Print UK Ltd, and the contract is active. The process contains one completed lot covering the election printing requirement. The available award information identifies electoral forms and printing services as the contracted items.

This procurement shows demand from South Staffordshire District Council for a print supplier that can produce electoral forms accurately and support related printing and fulfilment services for public-sector elections. A credible future competitor would need dependable commercial print production, quality control, document handling and the operational capacity to manage election materials at council scale. Experience with electoral or other regulated, high-accuracy printed communications would be relevant, because errors, missed deadlines or inconsistent output could affect formal election activity. The awarded supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement was delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only a large national contractor. Mail-handling capability is also relevant, given the supplier’s name and the combined mail and print service profile.
