The intended procurement encompasses two distinct lots: Print Management and Creative Design services, classified under the CPV code 79342000. This procurement has reached the award stage with significant engagement from suppliers, though it is currently noted that the process has been cancelled despite having received bids. The estimated value for the Print Management Contract is approximately £658,432 (ex VAT), while the Creative Design Contract is estimated at £635,068 (ex VAT). This tender represents a fruitful opportunity for businesses specialising in marketing services, particularly those offering print management and creative design solutions. Both small and large-scale companies can consider competing, particularly those with a focus on social housing sectors, as the framework allows for contracts to be let to a selected pool of suppliers. With several supplier positions earmarked for the framework, businesses can leverage their expertise to provide tailored services to a range of public bodies and social housing providers across the UK. ## Notice ForHousing is procuring a Framework Agreement pursuant to which it is envisaged that contracts will be let to suppliers within the Framework for the provision of a range of print management, marketing and creative design services.
