Supply of Multi-functional Devices and Document Solutions, Digital Duplicators, Print Room Equipment.
Supply and delivery of Multi-functional Devices and Document Solutions, Digital Duplicators, Print Room Equipment, Independent Audit and Managed Print Services. Provision of a Managed Print Service that controls the customer's printing devices, consolidating charges and driving savings through better efficiencies.
Supply a full range of hardware from desktop printers to high volume MFD's and reprographics equipment, as well as a full range of software options that can be tailored to meet the Customer's requirement to improve efficiency and drive down the overall cost of their printing processes.
Provision of an Independent Print Audit service to End users. This service may be required for End users who are seeking to understand their current costs in order to improve/minimise them, whilst driving out inefficiencies, prior to carrying out any Managed Print Exercise.
The current contract for the provision of a Managed Print Service was issued under a local government buying organisation (CBC) Framework Agreement (now expired). HCC is proposing to extend the existing contract in accordance with Regulation 72(1b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. A change in contractor to provide the additional services required over the 2 year extension period would cause economic and technical difficulties and would cause significant inconvenience and additional costs for the reasons set out below:
HCC has committed significant investment in the development of a new digital platform which will transform ways of working across the authority and support a move towards a new integrated document production (IDP) service. Due to the on going development for digital implementation, it has not been possible for us to inform the service and technical requirements for a new IDP specification at this stage. HCC is therefore preparing to extend its current Managed Print Service arrangements for a period of up to 24 months, subject to Member approval, to facilitate the full development of a new IDP specification which is aligned to their new Digital Service requirements. HCC has a detailed plan and governance structure in place to develop and define an appropriate requirement specification for a longer term supply contract in 2017. A core element of this plan is early engagement with the market, taking into account new innovations and market developments, which will progress during the next 12 months.
