## Summary

The procurement process titled "164_22 - Promotional and Personalised Products" is initiated by ESPO, a central purchasing body based in Leicester, UK. This contract is classified under the goods category, specifically focusing on information and promotion products. The procurement method employed is open, with the current stage being active. Key dates include a bid submission deadline of 7th October 2021, and contracts are set to commence from 1st April 2022, lasting until 31st March 2026. The framework agreement is available for public bodies across the UK, such as local authorities, educational institutions, and various NHS entities.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs specialising in promotional and corporate products. Businesses that manufacture or supply items such as personalised merchandise, corporate gifts, and rubber stamps would find this contract well-suited for participation. The successful contractors may also engage with ESPO Trading Limited for additional agreements, allowing for wider market access and potential contracts outside the public procurement framework. With eAuction processes planned for subsequent awards, competitive pricing and quality will be crucial for success.

## Notice

This framework will cover the supply of bespoke corporate and leisure promotional products and stamps. The products are to be supplied to customers on a national basis. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any Second Framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Limited may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders' information only. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
