## Summary

Gedling Borough Council is seeking a supplier to produce and mail its annual Council Tax and National Non-Domestic Rates bills, together with annual benefit notifications. The requirement covers the printing and related mailing service for these recurring council communications. Delivery is in the Gedling Borough Council area in Nottinghamshire. This is a single service requirement, rather than separate lots for billing and benefit notifications.

The council invited quotations through an open competition, reaching the tender stage. This is a below-threshold procurement, with electronic submission allowed. The deadline for enquiries was 27 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the deadline for submissions was 10 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract is due to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with an option for one extra year depending on need and local government reorganisation issues. The stated gross value is £115,000. Bids are assessed on price (60%) and quality (40%), with quality including social value. Participation is reserved for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises based in England.

This opportunity is suited to an SME or voluntary, community or social enterprise based in England with the capacity to handle recurring, annual production and mailing at borough scale. Suppliers should be able to manage both Council Tax and business rates billing alongside benefit notifications, coordinating print production and distribution as a dependable end-to-end service. Experience delivering comparable high-volume, time-sensitive mailings for public bodies would be relevant, particularly where accuracy and reliable dispatch are important. The evaluation gives price the greater weighting, while quality and social value together account for a substantial part of the assessment, so bidders should be able to explain their service approach and the social value they can deliver.
