## Summary

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs has completed the procurement process titled "Tail Spend Solutions," aimed at supplying a catalogue of various goods under the industry category of office equipment and supplies (CPV code: 30190000). The award notice was published on 22 April 2026, following the announcement on 31 March 2026.
