## Summary

Peterborough City Council procured hybrid mail and bulk print services for its Revenues and Benefits Services. The requirement covers business printing and related print services supporting the council’s revenues and benefits work. The procurement is classified as business services, including printing. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The council is the buying organisation and the requirement was arranged as a single service lot. This is relevant to suppliers providing high-volume printing, hybrid mail or associated document production services for public-sector revenues and benefits operations. It may also suit businesses able to provide compatible goods and services within an established operational environment, particularly where changing supplier could create technical or maintenance difficulties.

The procurement has been awarded through a direct award to Financial Data Management Ltd, with the award recorded on 21 August 2026. The award is pending and has a gross value of £498,000, comprising £415,000 excluding VAT, for the single lot. The contract period runs from 4 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. A contract signature was scheduled for 4 September 2026, following a standstill period ending on 3 September 2026. The council justified the direct award because changing supplier would result in different or incompatible goods and disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance. The selected supplier is Financial Data Management Ltd, a small or medium-sized enterprise.

This award indicates established public-sector demand for integrated hybrid mail and bulk print supporting revenues and benefits services. A credible future competitor would need dependable high-volume print production, document handling and hybrid mail capability, with the operational capacity to support council service volumes. The requirement also points to the importance of compatibility with existing goods, services and technical arrangements, together with the ability to avoid disruption and disproportionate maintenance or operating difficulties when taking over from an incumbent supplier. Suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate experience of reliable public-sector or similarly regulated document services, robust operational continuity, and technical competence in maintaining compatible systems and processes. The award to an SME shows that this scale of requirement is not confined to the largest providers.
