10 Mailing Services
  • Value: £50M

We are seeking potential suppliers of end‑to‑end outbound‑communication solutions that allow public bodies to merge personalised print with digital alternatives, assemble packs at scale, apply intelligent sortation for postal discounts and trace every item from data receipt to letterbox. Your service should provide secure data transfer, Royal‑Mail‑compliant production, in‑flight channel‑switching (print ↔ SMS / email) and carbon‑footprint reporting so officers can reduce spend, improve engagement and evidence emissions reductions.

11 Secure Printing
  • Value: £35M

We are seeking potential suppliers of physically and procedurally secure printing capable of producing examination materials, patient records, electoral ballots and other mission‑critical documents to strict confidentiality standards. Facilities must hold relevant ISO 27001 / CPNI accreditation, manage encrypted pre‑press workflows, incorporate overt and covert anti‑fraud features such as holograms or microtext, and maintain auditable chain‑of‑custody right through to locked‑cage delivery – ensuring authorities can discharge their statutory duties without risk of data compromise.

12 Secure Digital Printing
  • Value: £35M

We are seeking potential suppliers of ultra‑secure, variable‑data digital print that combines high‑definition output with real‑time encryption, on‑press barcode / QR validation and web‑triggered reprint controls. Outcomes include rapid turnaround of individually tailored letters, certificates and permits, fully assured against interception or tampering, with API links to authority CRM systems and automated evidencing of GDPR compliance.

13 Bulk Paper Supply
  • Value: £30M

We are seeking potential suppliers of consolidated paper‑supply solutions that harness the collective volume of framework users to drive down costs and environmental impact. Required outcomes encompass just‑in‑time delivery of FSC‑certified, recycled and speciality stocks, price‑stability mechanisms linked to pulp indices, real‑time inventory dashboards and carbon‑balanced procurement that helps both print suppliers and contracting authorities meet Net‑Zero targets.

14 Energy Reduction Services
  • Value: £15M

We are seeking potential suppliers of outcome‑based energy‑reduction programmes for print environments – from granular metering and AI‑driven scheduling of presses to LED‑lighting retrofits, heat‑recovery systems and renewable‑power sourcing. Solutions should deliver guaranteed kWh and CO₂e savings, provide ESOS / SECR‑ready reporting, and offer financing or gain‑share models so that authorities and framework suppliers alike can decarbonise operations with minimal capital outlay.
