This tender falls within the publishing services category under the CPV code 79970000. The procurement process is currently at the award stage, having been completed on May 25, 2022. Potential suppliers should note that the contract covers delivery addresses across various regions, including the UK and British Overseas Territories, with a deadline for any appeals or inquiries related to the tender already passed.
