## Summary

Kent County Council, through its Procurement Services function, procured multi-functional devices and digital solutions under the requirement titled “Multi Functional Devices & Digital Solutions”. The scope covers leased and purchased multi-functional devices, together with associated services. The equipment includes printers, plotters and photocopiers. This is a public-sector technology and office equipment requirement, relevant to suppliers providing managed print, document hardware, device leasing, equipment supply and related digital or support services. The purchasing organisation is a sub-central public authority based in West Malling, Kent. The procurement was arranged as one lot, covering the combined requirement rather than separate lots for individual equipment or services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective procedure under a framework, without reopening competition. The award was made on 5 August 2026 to The DMS Digital Group Limited, an SME. The gross awarded value is £273,460. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. The award covers the single lot for leased and purchased multi-functional devices and associated services. The successful supplier is responsible for the printers, plotters, photocopiers and related requirement. The procurement is above the relevant threshold. The award and contract are recorded as active, while the tender itself is complete.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Kent County Council for a combined managed-print requirement involving both leased and purchased multi-functional devices, supported by associated services. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply or arrange printers, plotters and photocopiers, and support the operational services connected with those devices. The route used here indicates that framework access and the ability to compete through a selective framework award can be commercially important. The requirement is substantial enough to suit an established specialist or a capable SME, provided it can manage equipment supply, leasing and purchase arrangements, and deliver a coordinated service for a public-sector customer. The opportunity is therefore relevant to managed print, office equipment and document technology providers.
