Description

Derby City Council (DCC) has a requirement to produce a range of materials to communicate messages both internally and externally. To help to meet this demand a new contract in the form of a Framework for Printing Services will be procured.
The Council is looking for tenders from suitably qualified and experienced, providers for the following lots:
            Lot 1 - Standard and Large Volume Printing 
            Lot 2 - Signage and Large Format Printing
            Lot 3 - Promotional Printing  
            Lot 4 - Advertising Boarding and Installation 
            Lot 5 - Vehicle Signage
Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the contract. For this contract it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups.
An additional estimated value of £1,761,000 (Including VAT) to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR. This is not committed spend. 
THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION TO TENDER - THIS NOTICE SEEKS TO ALERT THE MARKET THAT IT IS OUR INTENTION TO TENDER AROUND NOVEMBER/ DECEMBER 2025
