## Summary

The procurement process for the "Elections and Electoral Registration Print and Related Services" was conducted by Liverpool City Council, aimed at establishing a closed framework covering print services necessary for electoral registration and elections in the Merseyside and Northwest Region of the United Kingdom. The process, utilising an open procurement method, was completed with the award stage on 15 June 2026, involving a framework for Goods and Services valued at £4,800,000. The involved locations include multiple councils such as Liverpool City Council and Wirral Council, among others. The framework agreement, effective from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2030, calls on suppliers such as CIVICA Election Services Limited and PSL Print Management Ltd, potentially providing substantial business opportunities due to its open nature and inclusion of scheduled and unscheduled election services in its scope.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses operating in the printing industry, especially those that can provide high-quality electoral forms and related services. SMEs like PSL Print Management Ltd participating in the final stage demonstrate that smaller enterprises have competitive opportunities alongside larger firms, as long as they can deliver on quality and pricing criteria. With the contract open to multiple councils, including Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council and others, businesses established in the Northwest of England with capabilities in electoral print services and registration can leverage this framework to diversify and expand their public sector service offerings. The framework's structure supporting direct awards provides an efficient pathway for well-ranked suppliers to secure assignments, enhancing business growth prospects.
