## Summary

The London & Quadrant Housing Trust has completed the procurement process for outsourcing its outbound print and post services. This procurement was conducted under a restricted procedure, intended to replace existing arrangements, with a focus on achieving operational functionality before the closure of Cray House in March 2025. The contract, valued at £600,000, started on 13th October 2025 and will continue until 12th October 2028. The project falls under the postal and printing services category, with a substantial annual volume of over 600,000 units. The procurement process emphasised service coverage across multiple regions, including the UK, Europe, and other areas, highlighting its international scope. Integrity Connect has been awarded this contract, following an active tender stage concluded on 9th January 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for companies specialising in postal and related printing services. With a focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs), the contract presents a lucrative chance for businesses with the capacity to handle high-volume logistics and distribution. Given the widespread geographical service area, businesses with robust networks and operational flexibility would be particularly well-suited to this contract. The steady demand throughout the contract period promises potential growth and sustained business for suitable suppliers, providing a pathway for expansion within the public procurement landscape.
