Tender: Gloucestershire Election and Electoral Registration Printing Contract – start 31 January 2027

About

Cotswold District Council, on behalf of the six Gloucestershire district authorities (Cotswold District Council, Cheltenham Borough Council, Forest of Dean District Council, Stroud District Council, Tewkesbury Borough Council and Gloucester City Council), is seeking a supplier for printing services for all election and electoral registration requirements. The procurement and subsequent contract will be managed by the Electoral Services Manager at Cotswold District Council, with the contract held between the supplier and the six authorities and Cotswold acting as the Lead Authority. The new contract, replacing the existing arrangement due to finish in January 2027, is split into two areas—election printing and electoral registration—will follow legislative printing requirements and is planned as a three-year contract starting 31 January 2027 with the option to extend for a further two years (two single-year extensions).
