## Summary

North Northamptonshire Council has been managing a procurement process related to printing and mailing services for electoral purposes. As of August 2025, this process required urgent modifications due to unforeseeable circumstances such as the death of a candidate, which disrupted the elections. The council used Regulation 32 to modify the contract without prior publication. The contract, awarded to Civica Election Services Limited, involves services associated with printing and is particularly relevant for the electoral services category within the region of North Northamptonshire (UKF2). The procurement is in the contract amendment stage with the contract being active since it was signed on 31st May 2025, and it is set to last for 300 days. The contract value has increased to £971,000 due to the modifications.

This procurement process represents significant opportunities for service-oriented businesses in the printing and mailing industry who are capable of managing large-scale and time-sensitive projects such as electoral services. Businesses with a strong understanding of regulated frameworks and an ability to swiftly adapt to unpredictable demands, like those experienced in election emergencies, will find this sector advantageous. Given the use of a selective procurement method, companies already within established frameworks have a competitive edge. See this as an essential opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to leverage their specialised capabilities and agility to grow within public sector contracts, particularly those classified under the Printing and related services CPV code.
