## Summary

Lancaster City Council procured election and electoral registration printing services, covering the production of printed materials needed to support elections and electoral registration. The requirement is a public-sector service rather than a supply of general commercial print, so relevant experience in election-related or other highly controlled administrative printing would be useful. The buying organisation is Lancaster City Council, and the service supports its local election and electoral registration functions. The awarded work is classified as printing and related services. The named supplier is Civica Election Services Limited, a large London-based business. This opportunity is relevant to printers, election-services providers and managed print businesses able to deliver accurate, secure and dependable election and registration materials for a local authority.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Civica Election Services Limited. It used a selective route described as a below-threshold award under a framework, and the award was non-competitive. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026, with an active contract period from 1 July 2026 to 30 July 2030. The contract value is £100,000 excluding VAT, or £120,000 including VAT. The award date is not stated separately from the available outcome information. There was one completed lot and one active award, covering the full election and electoral printing requirement. The process was handled by Lancaster City Council under the legal basis of the Procurement Act 2023. The arrangement is linked to a wider framework procurement.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates an established local-authority demand for a managed election and electoral printing service with a substantial multi-year delivery requirement. A credible competitor for similar work would need dependable commercial print production, strong quality control and the capacity to handle election and electoral-registration materials accurately at council scale. Experience of public-sector customers, secure handling of sensitive information, reliable scheduling around election activity and the ability to provide a complete print service would strengthen a future proposition. The route used here also shows that framework access and readiness to respond to below-threshold call-offs may be commercially important. Election-services specialists, specialist printers and larger managed print providers are the most relevant competitor groups.
