## Summary

The procurement process for the Provision of Universal Mailers has been completed, with Public Health England (PHE) successfully awarding the contract to Tasso, Inc. The contract, valued at £250,000, falls under the goods category, specifically for mail or parcel bags. The procurement method utilised was a direct tender action, which was below threshold. The contract period commenced on 23rd September 2020 and concluded on 24th March 2021, with the tender period having ended on 22nd September 2020. PHE operates out of London, England, and serves a vital role as a Category 1 Responder in emergencies, in line with the Civil Contingencies Act 2004.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses within the mail and packaging sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing innovative solutions for mail services. With PHE’s focus on emergency preparedness, suppliers with a strong logistical capability and experience in emergency supply chains would be particularly well-suited. Companies looking to grow in the public sector should consider engaging with similar contracts that align with the needs of organisations like PHE, especially those linked to health and safety logistics.
