What is being bought

Published requirement description

Stonewater (as the Contracting Authority) requires an efficient and comprehensive print and mailing provision for the production and despatch of large customer mailing projects throughout the year.

Ranging from our annual Rent Review mailout (c. 40,000 letters) to smaller ad-hoc mailings of 5,000 letters or below.

Stonewater would work with the mailing provider to agree design (on appointment of the Contract) to develop and deliver our annual mailing programme along with any ad hoc large mailing services that may be required. We look to our mailing provider to bring their experience from their wider base of clients to help us deliver a high-quality service of correspondence to our customers as required.

Initial term of 3 years (with extension options of 12months plus 12 months).

** Please note extension to deadline - now Fri 8th Aug,17:00 **

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
