Integrated Logistics Services

Description

The Publications Office produces a wide variety of products including legal, economic and scientific publications in various formats, such as books, periodicals, DVDs, USBs, CD-ROMs, posters and calendars, among others. The publications range from a simple leaflet to series containing multiple documents comprising several thousand pages. The products are distributed to recipients. While the Publications Office used to operate its own warehouse and undertake related logistics services itself, since 2015 these have been entrusted to a third party based in Lille, France. The current contract will come to an end and the Publications Office is seeking a contractor to take over the daily operations as a managed service provider (MSP) to provide ‘integrated logistics services’ which cover the following domains: 1. warehousing (reception, storage, returned goods management, destocking/recycling); 2. order processing and distribution (data entry and processing, handing and kitting, packaging).
