## Summary

Rushmoor Borough Council procured printing, fulfilment and mailing services for approximately 36,000 bills, direct debit instructions and up to two additional inserts. The requirement covers the full production and distribution process, from printing documents and inserts through to preparing and mailing them. It is a service contract within the printing and related services category (CPV 79800000), rather than a supply of printing equipment or a construction project. The buying organisation is Rushmoor Borough Council, based in Farnborough. Delivery covers locations across England, including the South East and other English regions. Suppliers suited to this requirement would typically provide secure, accurate high-volume transactional printing, document fulfilment, envelope preparation and nationwide mailing services for council communications.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Rushmoor Borough Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One completed lot was awarded to LATCHAM DIRECT LIMITED. The contract was signed on 1 February 2025 and runs from 1 February 2025 to 19 February 2027. Its gross value is £35,470.36 including applicable taxes. The contract is active and the award is active. The published outcome identifies LATCHAM DIRECT LIMITED as the selected supplier. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so no comparative scoring or award weighting is stated. The service covers the council’s printing, fulfilment and mailing requirement for bills, direct debit instructions and inserts.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear example of Rushmoor Borough Council’s demand for outsourced transactional communications at a substantial recurring volume. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to handle around 36,000 bills and direct debit instructions, incorporate up to two inserts, and manage the associated fulfilment and mailing workflow reliably. Relevant capability includes high-volume digital or transactional print production, variable-data handling, accurate document matching, folding and enclosing, quality assurance, address management and dependable postal dispatch. Experience serving public-sector customers, maintaining confidentiality of billing information, meeting tightly controlled production schedules and distributing material across England would strengthen a supplier’s position.
