Print and Signage Framework 2026

Description

The Council wishes to commission Supplier(s) on a framework basis, to supply Print and Promotional Signage Materials and Services. The Open Framework will operate for a maximum term of eight (8) years from the Commencement Date. Following the reopening of the Framework in the third year, the Council reserves the right, at its discretion, to reopen the Framework to admit new suppliers for the remainder of the original eight-year term. Such reopening may occur in circumstances such as when existing suppliers leave the Framework, are unable to meet requirements, responding to market changes or innovations, and encouraging SME participation, or where reopening is deemed necessary to maintain competition and value for money. Any reopening constitutes a renewal of participation for the remaining duration of the original term and does not extend or reset the eight-year limit (in accordance with section 49(2)(c) of the Act). This tender notice is for the award of a public contract through a competitive flexible procedure in accordance with section 20(1) and (2)(b) of the Procurement Act 2023.
