## Summary

Wigan Council has completed the procurement process titled "Replacement of End of Life Printers at Wigan Council" to replace outdated multi-functional devices (MFDs) across its estate, ensuring continued self-serve printing for staff and free services for residents in local libraries. The procurement falls under the industry category of office and computing machinery, equipment, and supplies, excluding furniture and software packages. This direct award was made via the Crown Commercial Service framework for "Multifunctional Devices, Print and Digital Workflow Software Services." The contract, valued at £745,888, is scheduled to commence on 1st November 2025 and conclude on 31st December 2027. The supplier selected for this contract is Xerox (UK) Limited. The award was finalised on 5th September 2025.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities, particularly for businesses that supply multi-functional devices and provide managed print services tailored for local government operations. Companies experienced in supplying and maintaining MFDs or offering digital workflow systems can find prospects for engagement given Wigan Council's ongoing digital transformation and requirements for financial efficiency. Such procurement activities are well-suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), which can leverage the opportunity to partner with public sector organisations committed to efficiently managing their resources while maintaining essential services for their communities.

## Notice

The existing stock of Multi-Functional Devices enable self-serve printing for staff managing service requests and for residents to use free of charge from local Libraries across the borough. The existing fleet of printing devices have reached the end of their serviceable life and are now out of software support. There is now an urgent business requirement to replace MFD's across the Council's estate. Due to further digital transformation anticipated across Council functions and the need for greater financial efficiency it is prudent to review current print arrangements and seek to reduce the overall number of MFD's in operation, whilst maintaining a customer facing function in Libraries for residents. This aligns with the ambition to better align with the Document Solutions service as part of an overall Print Policy. This is a direct award via the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) "Multifunctional Devices (MFDs), Print and Digital Workflow Software Services and Managed Print Software Provision framework" under lot 2 "Multifunctional Print Devices (MFDs) Print Management, Digital Workflow Software". This framework is a compliant route to market as the framework was established under Public Contract Regulations (2015).
