## Summary

Sheffield City Council is seeking a qualified provider for the supply of electoral materials under the title "Elections Printing 2019". The estimated contract value is £215,000 and the procurement process is at the "Award" stage, following completion of the initial tender process. The contract is expected to commence on 17th December 2018 and will last until 16th December 2019, in preparation for the elections scheduled for 3rd May 2019, which includes various local and parish contests in Yorkshire and the Humber.

This opportunity presents a significant avenue for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in printing services and electoral materials. Businesses that can demonstrate experience in producing printed matter, such as poll cards and ballot papers, will be well-positioned to compete. With a total of 28 ward contests and the potential for 14 parish contests, successful bidders will be contributing to a critical civic process while gaining valuable experience in public sector procurement.

## Notice

Sheffield City Council has a requirement to identify and appoint a suitably qualified and experienced provider to supply Electoral Materials as detailed within the specific requirements. The total estimated contract value excluding VAT over the duration of the contact is PS215,000. However, this does not carry any guarantee of turnover and any estimated volumes of business are indicative and may vary upwards or downwards depending on actual future needs. The Contract is expected to commence on 17th December 2018 and will be for a period of one year until 16th December 2019. The Contract relates to the printing and fulfilment of election materials (poll cards, postal votes, ballot papers and Corresponding Number Lists). The 2019 election is due to take place on May 3rd and will consist of a combined local and all out parish. Sheffield City Council has 28 separate ward contests in the local election and up to 14 separate contests possible within our 3 parishes. However not all parishes are expected to be contested.
