Description
The scope of this contract will cover Plain, Printed, and Printed Postage Impression (PPI) Envelopes. The Council has a requirement for various types of envelopes to meet different business operational needs. The vast majority of these are for large order volumes for the in-house Document Management Centre (DMC).
The DMC section manages the supply and orders the different varieties. Storage is limited, so potential suppliers will need to store stock which can be called off. The DMC carries out printing which includes some requirements for direct mailing. Their enveloping equipment uses the C5 oversized envelopes to process job requirements. Currently, wherever possible, orders are raised to maximise volumes to benefit from economies of scale and raised on a call-off basis and these orders are raised with consideration to storage and usage requirements.
The current approximate spend on envelopes is £82,000 per annum, but due to the variables involved, the Council are unable to guarantee the consistency of this annual value of spend.
Please note, suppliers wishing to express interest and obtain the documentation must do so by 14:00, Thursday the 28th of July 2016. It is recommended that you express interest and obtain the documentation well before this time to allow sufficient time to prepare and submit a comprehensive response. The deadline for returns is 14:00, Friday the 29th of July 2016. The process is being run via the Council etendering system www.eastmidstenders.org where you can express interest and obtain the documents. Please note we will only accept expressions of interest through the e-tendering system.
