## Summary

The Competition and Markets Authority procured courier services for deliveries across the United Kingdom, covering the North East, North West, London, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The requirement is classified as courier services (CPV 64120000) and falls within the services category. It is intended to support the Authority’s courier and delivery needs across these locations. The geographic scope is national, spanning England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The opportunity is therefore relevant to courier operators and delivery businesses able to provide coverage across multiple UK regions, rather than suppliers limited to a single town or local delivery area. The named buyer is the Competition and Markets Authority, based in London.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 10 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to Citysprint (UK) Limited on 17 July 2026 for £18,750. The contract period runs from 24 July 2026 to 23 July 2029. The award is active and the contract notice records the selected supplier and the agreed contract period. This is a single courier-services requirement covering the stated UK delivery areas. The award value is the reported value for this contract and should not be treated as a wider framework value.

This award demonstrates established demand from the Competition and Markets Authority for courier services covering the whole of the UK, including the North East, North West, London, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need the operational reach and delivery capacity to serve all of these areas, or a delivery network capable of providing that coverage. Access to the relevant framework agreement is also important, because this procurement was made as a framework call-off using a selective procedure. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so an SME with credible national coverage, dependable courier operations and the ability to work through the framework route could be well placed when the Authority next requires this service.
