Summary of the contracting process

NHS Fife, operating out of Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline, recently concluded a procurement process for the supply of printed matter, specifically frailty posters needed for clinical areas. This contract was awarded under a direct procurement method to Pandaprint, an experienced supplier based in Dunfermline, known for printed materials and related products. The contracting authority directly awarded the contract without competition, and the contract was signed on 2nd February 2026, marking the completion of the award stage in this procurement process. The requirement was for 100 A4-sized posters with a silk 170gsm paper weight, aligning with the industry classification for printed matter and related products (CPV code 22000000).

This tender presents a strategic growth opportunity for businesses specialised in high-quality printing, especially those able to supply medical institutions with durable and professional materials. While the contract has been awarded to Pandaprint through a non-competitive process, businesses in the printing industry should take note of NHS Fife's ongoing need for printed materials, positioning themselves for potential future opportunities. Given the niche requirement for durable paper suitable for clinical environments, companies with similar capabilities can leverage this as a case to expand their service offerings to healthcare-related procurement needs.
