## Summary

The Richmondshire District Council is seeking tenders for the provision of election printing services, associated with a range of elections including European Parliamentary and local councils, through a contract valued at £68,000. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, with the contract period set to begin on 1st April 2018 and end on 31st March 2019, allowing for potential extensions. The tender closed on 23rd February 2018. This opportunity falls under the Business services industry category, specifically within the printing sector, and will be delivered in the Yorkshire and the Humber region, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a growth opportunity for businesses in the printing and election services sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs).
