## Summary

The University of Cumbria has completed a tender process for "Multifunctional Devices and Digital Transformation Solutions" under the CPC Digital Transformation Framework (Reference CPC/DU/MFD/03A). The tender, which concluded on 23rd September 2021, sought suppliers to provide a managed print solution for its facilities located in Lancaster, North West England, specifically for items including both networked and non-networked printers. The awarded contract, valued at an undisclosed amount, is set to last for five years, commencing from 15th November 2021 to 15th November 2026, and was procured through a selective (restricted) procedure.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for businesses in the office machinery and equipment sector, particularly those that specialise in managed print solutions and digital transformation services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage with this opportunity given the suitability requirements highlighted during the tender process. Companies that can provide flexible solutions, especially in the context of the evolving digital landscape due to COVID-19, will be well-positioned to compete effectively for future projects associated with this framework.

## Notice

We are requesting submissions from suppliers on the CPC Digital Transformation Framework ( LOT 2) ( Ref CPC/DU/MFD/03A) to supply a managed print solution to The University of Cumbria. Our Print Room and non-networked printers are included in Option 1 of this Invitation to Tender. Option 2 assumes the closure of our Print Unit and the provision of a third party reprographics service. Our preference is for suppliers to price both options. Covid19 has, of course, changed the landscape and we are therefore looking for a phased introduction of new MFDs with a minimum order as stated in the specification with flexibility to add more MFDs later in the year / contract if required. We are awarding the contract for a period of 5 years.
