Authority: PSNI - Police Service of Northern Ireland (Police & fire)·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) Creative Hub within the Strategic Communications and Department require a commercial printer, to produce and deliver printed items including forms and a range of other printed material for delivery to, and usage throughout, the PSNI Estate. The commercial printer will offer an end-to-end service from initial client brief through to the delivery of the final products. ***Supplier Open Day *** A supplier open day will be facilitated to provide potential tenderers with the opportunity to familiarise themselves with to view samples of forms and booklets that the customer will make available and for any questions relating to the procurement. It is anticipated this will be on Friday 28 July 2023, the location and time will be confirmed following confirmation of attendance. Attendees will be limited to two individuals per company. Details of attendees must be submitted in advance as a message via eTendersNI, the message must contain the names of the company representatives. This information must be submitted through the secure messaging function within eTendersNI by 12 noon on Wednesday 26 July 2023. It is strongly recommended that tenderers avail of this open day. Tenderers will not be permitted to take any sample materials for future reference, and therefore attendance is the only opportunity for serious and genuine tenderers to examine indicative examples of PSNI’s requirements prior to submitting their proposals. (Since space at Print and Design Unit is limited, if large numbers of potential tenderers wish to view the samples, PSNI may consider arranging an additional day or days. However, since levels of interest are not known at this stage, potential tenderers should note this only as a possibility, and aim to attend at the date and time indicated.) Please note that attendance is not a mandatory requirement; tenderers may still submit proposals without viewing the PSNI samples, and those who do attend are under no obligation to submit a proposal.
