Postal Services

Welcome to Postal Services

Our postal services framework agreements provide access to a number of suppliers offering an extensive range of mail services.

postalservicescover2.jpgFollowing the opening of the postal services market, Buying Solutions worked in close collaboration with OGC, Department for Work & Pensions, HM Revenue & Customs and other government departments to develop a series of framework agreements to aggregate public sector demand and enable organisations to call off a range of requirements quickly and cost effectively.

The framework agreements are compliant with EU procurement directives, allowing customers to bypass the time and costs involved in conducting a full procurement exercise themselves.

The postal services offering encompasses a multi-source option which gives customers extensive choice and the facility to run a mini competition, dependent upon their requirements.

The Postal Services team will also provide information and guidance on:

  • Procurement issues specific to the public sector
  • Tailoring solutions to suit specific customer needs
  • Implementation and change management
  • Best practice and benchmarking
  • Monitoring supplier performance
  • Trends and developments within the market  

If you wish to make a comment about the Postal Services Frameworks or forward a suggestion, please email your feedback to postalservices@buyingsolutions.gsi.gov.uk

Alternatively, telephone the Customer Service Desk on 0345 410 2222 and ask to speak to a member of the Postal and Courier Services project team.
