## Summary

The Oxford Diocesan Bucks Schools Trust (ODBST) is seeking a single supplier for multi-functional printing devices (MFD) across its 11 Academies in the North and East of Oxford. The Trust aims to identify a partner to provide printing devices, installation services, maintenance, training, software, and management services for its current estate of 28 devices. The tender has a value of £450,000 and a contract period of 1800 days. The procurement method is selective with competitive negotiation, and the deadline for submissions is April 3, 2023. The Trust expects to make a decision by April 26, 2023.

This tender opportunity from the Oxford Diocesan Bucks Schools Trust can be attractive for companies providing reprographic services and financial leasing services. Businesses offering printing ink, machinery, and leasing services are well-suited to compete. The Trust's focus on efficient print management, device maintenance, and training services presents an opportunity for businesses specializing in office equipment and service solutions to showcase their capabilities. Collaborating with the Trust can lead to a long-term partnership providing essential services to a network of schools within a well-established Academy Trust.
