This contract, titled "RoS - Secure Mail Delivery," falls under the services category and is classified with the CPV code 60160000. The mail delivery services are crucial for the Registers of Scotland, particularly for next-day delivery and occasional tracked mail, based at Meadowbank House, 153 London Road, Edinburgh. The procurement utilized a limited method, without prior publication, due to the unique capability of the selected supplier to meet these specific service requirements. The contract was signed on 26 September 2024, and the process is now in the award stage. This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in secure logistical and mail delivery services, highlighting a niche market within Scotland. The nature of the service – ensuring secure, next-day delivery of legal documents to solicitors and agents – suggests that businesses with established track records in secure and time-sensitive delivery would be well-positioned to compete for similar opportunities. Large-scale logistics companies, particularly those with robust infrastructures geared towards legal and government sectors, stand to benefit from exploring such tenders. This procurement accentuates the importance of niche capabilities and regional dominance in successfully meeting the specific demands of public sector contracts. ## Notice Secure Mail delivery and collection throughout Scotland. Next day delivery is imperative due to our obligations to our customers. Tracked mail is also an option we use occasionally and must be available. ### Lot Information Lot 1 We are looking to put a contract in place for a secure mail delivery service encompassing next day delivery for Registers of Scotland. We have an obligation to deliver to a number of solicitors and agents and often contain legal documentation. ### Procurement Information We believe that there is only 1 company who can provide the service that we require within Scotland and that would be DX. Legal Post used to offer a similar service but were bought by DX and now they hold a monopoly on this service. We use Royal Mail for other services but they cannot guarantee next day delivery for example. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR525315 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Mar 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 26 Sep 2024 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £78,036 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | REGISTERS OF SCOTLAND | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH8 7AU | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Craigentinny/Duddingston | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh East and Musselburgh | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | DX GROUP | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 60 - Transport services (excl.
