This process is focused on gathering feedback and innovative ideas for traditional and lithograph printing, promotional print, and large format print services. The engagement end date is set for 8th December 2020, and interested parties must register with YORtender to access relevant documents. The consultation is part of the council's efforts within the printing and delivery services industry located in Yorkshire and the Humber, UK. This preliminary market consultation presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the printing and publishing sector, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). By participating, businesses have the chance to influence the framework, enhance their service offerings, and potentially position themselves favourably for future procurement exercises. However, it is crucial for interested organisations to note that participation does not guarantee future procurement opportunities, as the council may decide alternative solutions are more suitable following the consultation. ## Notice North East Lincolnshire Council (the Authority) is undertaking preliminary market consultation (PMC) on its idea about a replacement to its printing and publications framework. The objective of this PMC is to share with the market the Authority's ideas for the framework, to gather feedback on the ideas and to seek ideas about opportunities and innovation in the market. In summary, the Authority is considering procuring a framework of external print and publication providers which covers the following job types: * Traditional and Lithograph Printing * Promotional Print * Large Format Print For further information about the PMC, you will need to register with YORtender and then express an interest in the opportunity in order to access the PMC documents and questionnaire. Information about the PMC is only available via YORtender. There are supplier help guides, which are accessible via the YORtender home page if you have trouble accessing the PMC. It is important to note that a PMC is not a tender exercise. Following PMC, the Authority may conclude that procurement is not the best solution to meet a particular strategy outcome. The Authority may conclude that it would be better to do something entirely different to the intent within this PMC. It is essential that any organisation participating in the PMC understands that a procurement opportunity is not guaranteed. It is therefore essential that organisations understand that this activity is not part of a procurement exercise and involvement in the PMC does not affect an organisation's positioning either positively or negatively should a procurement opportunity arise subsequently. All questions and clarifications about this PMC must only be submitted via YORtender. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e0307cc-3f47-45bb-b042-30c8c038bc38 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Nov 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 8 Dec 2020 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NORTH EAST LINCOLNSHIRE COUNCIL | | Locality | GRIMSBY | | Post town | Doncaster | | Postcode | DN31 1HU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE1 East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire | | ITL 3 | TLE13 North and North East Lincolnshire | | Local authority | North East Lincolnshire | | Electoral ward | West Marsh | | Westminster constituency | Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79823000 - Printing and delivery services ## Release History - 12 Nov 2020 at 10:54 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e0307cc-3f47-45bb-b042-30c8c038bc38 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7e0307cc-3f47-45bb-b042-30c8c038bc38 12th November 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=8cb53318-7efd-ea11-8105-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.nelincs.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
