Description
Leicestershire County Council is the local authority responsible for providing a wide range of public services to the residents, businesses, and communities across Leicestershire. As part of our ongoing commitment to deliver high-quality and cost-effective services, we are reviewing our approach to the procurement of stationery supplies in readiness to go out to the market. The purpose of this document is to engage with the market and seek information from potential suppliers. By gathering insights and feedback at this early stage, we aim to better understand the capabilities, innovations, and challenges within the stationery supply sector. The information collected will help us shape the specification and approach for any future procurement, ensuring that our requirements are realistic, comprehensive, and aligned with market best practice. This is not an invitation to bid, this is solely a request for information (RFI) and no direct business will be awarded as a result of completing this RFI. Responding to this document does not advantage or disadvantage any supplier in any possible future procurement process. No supplier selection or supplier preference is implied.
