## Summary

Kent County Council, trading as Procurement Services, bought multifunctional devices and digital solutions under a single-lot requirement. The equipment includes photocopiers and printers, with the procurement covering the devices and related digital solutions. The buying organisation is Kent County Council. The contract is for supplying these goods; the available description does not define particular models, quantities, deployment sites or the functions included in the digital solutions. The procurement therefore indicates demand for business imaging and print equipment and associated digital capability, rather than a defined works project or a general IT services commission. Its scope is confined to this devices-and-solutions requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Sharp Business UK PLC. It was awarded through a selective route as an award under a framework, below the applicable threshold, and competition for this call-off was not used. The contract was signed on 14 September 2026 and runs from 30 October 2026 to 29 October 2030. Its gross value is £145,634. The procurement was divided into one lot, covering the multifunctional devices and digital solutions. The published outcome identifies the equipment categories but does not set out an evaluation basis or participation conditions. The selected supplier and contract value are the outcome of this completed procurement.

For suppliers considering similar requirements from Kent County Council, this award demonstrates demand for multifunctional print equipment, including photocopiers and printers, alongside digital solutions. A credible competitor would need to supply business-grade imaging and printing equipment and support the digital capability bundled with it. The council placed the requirement through a framework award rather than a new open competition, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to participate in relevant framework arrangements. The award went to a large business supplier, showing that the buyer selected a provider able to deliver the combined equipment-and-solutions requirement at council contract scale. The procurement does not establish particular product specifications, service levels, accreditations or technical qualifications, so these should not be assumed to be necessary conditions for future comparable work.
