Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council (trading as Procurement Services) procured multifunctional devices and digital solutions, with the awarded goods classified as photocopiers and printers/plotters (CPV 30121100). This is an equipment supply requirement rather than a construction or consultancy project. The procurement was arranged as one lot. The buyer is the council; the supplier named for the equipment is Kyocera Document Solutions Limited. The process concerns devices and associated digital solutions, but the published scope does not describe particular models, quantities, installation tasks or service components. No delivery location is stated, so the requirement cannot be tied to a specific council site or town from the available scope.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Kyocera Document Solutions Limited. The contract was signed on 12 October 2026, with an award published on 15 October 2026. The contract runs from 27 November 2026 to 26 November 2029. Its value is £34,522 gross. The competition was selective and the award was made under a framework; the process was below threshold and non-competitive. There was one lot, now complete. The published award identifies the goods as photocopiers and printers/plotters. No award-scoring criteria or supplier eligibility requirements are set out in the procurement details.

For suppliers of office imaging equipment and related digital solutions, this award demonstrates Kent County Council’s demand for multifunction devices, photocopiers and printers/plotters through a framework arrangement. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need to supply suitable equipment and support the council’s digital-solutions needs, with the capacity to serve a public-sector customer over a multi-year contract. Kyocera Document Solutions Limited, identified as a large supplier, won this procurement. The published scope does not identify particular product specifications, quantities, or service obligations, so it does not establish a more specific technical or delivery profile for competing suppliers.
