## Summary

FCDO Services is seeking a single supplier for generic and bespoke packaging materials and ancillary packaging products. The requirement covers standard packaging products, customised packaging solutions and associated packaging needed for the Authority’s operational activities at Hanslope Park in Milton Keynes. It may also include packaging products beyond the current core range, where described in the procurement documents. The main requirement is for goods, including boxes and related packaging services (CPV 44617000 and 79920000). Delivery requirements cover FCDO Services’ operations across England, with the buying organisation based at Hanslope Park, Milton Keynes. The opportunity is therefore relevant to manufacturers, distributors and packaging businesses able to provide both off-the-shelf materials and made-to-order packaging solutions.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: FCDO Services invited offers through an open procedure. Clarification questions had to be submitted through the Jaggaer messaging facility by 29 September 2026 at 12:00 BST, and tender responses must be submitted electronically through the Jaggaer portal by 15 October 2026 at 12:00 BST. The estimated value is £680,000 excluding VAT, or £850,000 including VAT. There is one lot. The initial contract period runs from 23 November 2026 to 22 November 2029, with options to extend by two further 12-month periods, up to 22 November 2031. Award is based on the Most Advantageous Tender, combining quality and price through a Price Per Quality Point methodology. The award decision is due by 13 November 2026.

This opportunity suits packaging manufacturers, wholesalers and specialist suppliers with the range and operational capacity to provide both standard and bespoke packaging. Suppliers should be able to develop or source customised packaging, maintain dependable supply of recurring products, and support additional quantities or similar packaging products as operational requirements change. A single-supplier arrangement favours businesses able to manage the full requirement rather than provide only one product line. The scope is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, including firms with established packaging design, production, distribution or fulfilment capability. Businesses serving customers across England may be well placed to meet the delivery requirements, particularly where they can coordinate varied product specifications and maintain consistent service for a central-government operation.

## Notice
