Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Procurement for Housing, is focused on the "Office Solutions Framework Agreement," which is classified under the general public services category. This initiative is located in Edinburgh, UK, and is currently in the planning stage, with an important future notice date set for 15 March 2021, as the existing framework is due to expire in June 2021. The estimated value of the procurement is £30,000,000, and it will be organised as a tender process, with various lots anticipated to be finalised following market engagement.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in sectors related to office supplies, janitorial services, IT hardware, and protective equipment. Companies that provide office solutions and associated services are especially well-suited to compete in this framework agreement. Given the multiple supplier framework's intent to cater to a diverse client base, such as housing associations and local authorities, it can enable these businesses to expand their market participation and enhance growth potential by aligning their services with the needs of public sector contracting authorities.
