Summary of the contracting process

The East Lothian Council has completed a tender process for the provision of postal services, titled "Award of Postal Services". This procurement falls under the services category and was initiated as an open procedure. The tender process concluded with the award to Critiqom Limited on 14 October 2021, with a contract value of £300,000. The project is based in Haddington, East Lothian, UK, and the procurement relates to general public services. The expected delivery of these postal services is designated for the region of East Lothian.

This opportunity is particularly suitable for businesses operating in the postal and logistics sectors, as it involves the provision of essential services to a local governmental authority. Companies that can offer competitive rates and high-quality service delivery will find this tender attractive for growth. With a relatively modest number of bids received, the competitive landscape appears favourable for well-prepared suppliers looking to engage with local authorities.
