## Summary

Blackpool Borough Council is seeking to engage suppliers for a Print Management Solution and Multi-Functional Devices (MFDs) in the North West of England. This procurement falls under the category of office machinery, equipment and supplies, with a total contract value of £1,000,000. The process was conducted through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, which concluded on 14th September 2018. The contract commenced on 16th October 2018 and is set to run until 15th October 2023.
