Summary of the contracting process

East Suffolk Council commissioned printing services for garden waste stickers. The requirement is for producing stickers used in connection with the council’s garden waste service; the award information classifies the work as printing and related services. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, with no specific town or delivery address identified. East Suffolk Council is the buyer. This is a single-lot requirement, so the printing work was procured as one package rather than split into separate lots. The information identifies the sticker printing itself, but does not describe quantities, formats, materials, artwork, or distribution. Suppliers whose business includes print production for local authority waste or environmental services are the closest fit; the contract is not for waste collection or treatment.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. East Suffolk Council awarded the contract to Permiserv Limited. The award is active and the contract is active; it was signed on 25 September 2026. The contract period runs from 25 September 2026 to 31 August 2027, with an optional one-year extension taking the maximum end date to 31 August 2028. The contract value is £66,000 excluding VAT and £79,200 including VAT. The procurement was below the applicable threshold, with the procedure recorded as below threshold; award criteria and their weighting are not stated. The process comprised one lot, which is complete. The award information does not provide an award date separate from the contract signing date.

For suppliers who did not win, this award shows that East Suffolk Council buys printed garden waste stickers through a below-threshold services procurement, as a single package. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the production capability to deliver printed stickers suitable for a council garden waste service, and the operational capacity to meet the buyer’s requirements across the contract period. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, demonstrating that this scale of printing contract was delivered by an SME. The procurement does not set out specific technical standards, volumes, equipment, accreditations or prior-experience requirements, so there is no basis to treat any of these as established conditions. Businesses specialising in commercial printing, particularly sticker production for public-sector environmental services, are the most directly relevant competitors.
