## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has completed a procurement process for courier services across England, Scotland, and Wales. The awarded tender, titled "EHRC 2526-21 Courier Services," was a further competition under the Crown Commercial Services RM6171 Framework. This procurement, classified under the CPV code 64120000 for courier services, was conducted through a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £24,000, commences on 10th February 2026 and concludes on 9th February 2028. Initially, the tender period concluded on 9th January 2026, with the award to Citysprint Ltd being published on 8th May 2026.

This tender provides a strategic opportunity for businesses engaged in courier and specialist movement services to expand within the UK market, specifically targeting regions across England, Scotland, and Wales. The procurement's suitability criteria were open to SMEs but not tailored for VCSEs, indicating an advantageous position for small to medium enterprises to participate. By fulfilling a vital logistics need, businesses gain the potential to secure long-term contracts and enhance their presence in public sector procurement through partnerships like those offered by the EHRC framework agreements.
