## Summary

Norwich City Council is currently conducting a tender process for the printing services of its Citizen Magazine, particularly targeting the winter 2017 edition and beyond. The procurement process is in the Tender stage, with submissions due by 29 August 2017. This contract is expected to commence on 16 October 2017, lasting for two years, with a potential extension of one additional year. The contract value is estimated between £60,000 and £75,000, and the project falls within the printing services industry, specifically under the CPV classification of 79810000. The primary delivery location is Norwich, United Kingdom.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in printing and distribution services. Companies capable of providing high-quality printing and delivering services to a substantial number of households—approximately 66,500 in Norwich—are particularly well-suited to compete. Firms with expertise in producing seasonal publications or those offering additional print finishing services may find this contract aligns with their capabilities, providing a chance to enhance their portfolio and expand their customer base.

## Notice

Norwich City Council is looking to source a supplier for the printing of its Citizen Magazine from the winter 2017 edition onwards. The Citizen Magazine is produced entirely in-house using our communications team to write all the editorial content and our graphic designers to produce the finished artwork which is made print ready. The Citizen Magazine is an invaluable publication for Norwich residents to turn to and rely on for factual council information about the essential services the council provides. The magazine is distributed at four set times each year (to coincide with each season) thereby allowing the council to keep residents up to date with important council news - be that changes to our waste and recycling service, the outcome of local elections or how they can give us their views on important consultations which will affect them. Each issue is distributed to approx. 66,500 households in Norwich. The contract term will be for a period of two years with an option to extend for up to one further year. The contract is anticipated to commence 16 October 2017 with the "Winter" edition of the Citizen magazine to be printed by early November 2017.
