Provision of Tail Spend Solution

Description

The notice concerns the award of contract for the provision of a Tail Spend Solution, which enables the Buyer to procure a wide range of goods classified as tail spend. Tail spend typically refers to low-complexity, high-volume and often ad hoc purchases that are not strategically sourced due to their relatively low individual value but can collectively represent a significant portion of overall procurement activity. This call-off contract falls under the scope of Crown Commercial Service Framework Agreement - RM6202, which facilitates access to pre-approved suppliers that offer competitive pricing and streamlined purchasing process for public sector organisations. Lancashire Renewables Limited regularly purchases a diverse range of products that are necessary for the operation. These include, but are not limited to, cleaning supplies, personal protective equipment (PPE), general maintenance items, consumables, spare parts, and other operationally essential goods. The awarded Tail Spend Solution aims to consolidate and optimise these purchases, ensuring value for money, improved efficiency, and compliance with public procurement standards.
