## Notice

The Print Procurement section is part of the Vote Office. It serves departments and Offices across the House of Lords, House of Commons and, on occasions, Parliamentary Associations. The function is to supply printed items requested by customers for the performance of their Parliamentary duties and promotion of public events. Printed and promotional items are outsourced to external printers on the framework where Print Services (the in-house digital production unit) cannot produce the requirements due to quantities required, time scales, specialist printing or finishing, such as embossing, foil blocking, die-stamping and thermography. The Print Procurement section operates Monday to Friday throughout the year. The volume of business tends to remain consistent throughout the year but peaks towards February and March.

### Lot Information

Specialist Printing

Most printed items in this category will require thermography, laser-proof thermography, foil blocking, die-stamping, die-cutting, matt or gloss lamination, embossing and debossing.

Promotional Printing

All items within this category will require either Pantone matched or CMYK printed branding. On occasions we may require laser/sandblast engraving or embossing on certain items.

Print

Items within this category will require either spot, four colour or, on occasions, five colour print (4/4 + metallic gold or Pantone). Lithography and digital printing will be required. Printed matters may require perforated feature sections, throw-outs, gate/roll or concertina folds.
