## Summary

Kent County Council, trading as Procurement Services, procured leased and purchased multifunction devices and associated services. The equipment includes printers and photocopiers, with digital solutions included in the overall requirement. The procurement is for supplying devices and related services to meet the council’s multifunctional printing and copying needs. The published delivery location is not identified, so the work cannot be tied to a particular site or town from the available details.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective route under a framework agreement. Sharp Business UK PLC was selected for the single lot, with an award value of £270,712 including VAT. The award was made on 2 October 2026. The contract period runs from 31 October 2026 to 30 October 2030. The process is recorded as a non-competitive framework award. The procurement details do not set out separate evaluation criteria or eligibility conditions, so the basis on which suppliers were assessed beyond the framework route is not stated here.

This award shows demand from Kent County Council for a combined supply of multifunction devices and associated services, covering both leased and purchased equipment. Suppliers seeking to compete for this requirement when it next comes to market would need to provide printers and photocopiers alongside relevant digital solutions, and be able to support both leasing and purchase arrangements. The selected supplier is a large business, indicating that a supplier able to handle a substantial, multi-year equipment and service requirement has met the buyer’s needs. Experience delivering comparable device fleets and associated services, with the capacity to manage ongoing provision across a public-sector customer, would be commercially relevant. The purchase was made under a framework, so suppliers’ access to an appropriate framework route would also be relevant.
