£100 M a year on printing!!!

[NEWS]

Royal Mail Group has decided on shortlists for the various lots in the massive £400m print management tender it launched at the end of December.

Almost 40 companies have been informed that they are on the shortlists of bidders invited to submit detailed tenders for four lots worth up to £100m per year.

A new unit of about 25 staff, Royal Mail Document Management Services, went into operation on 1 January to handle the Post Office operator's complete print output.

Royal Mail has also advertised a four-year print management contract worth up to £100m per year as part of a bid to streamline its current roster of 79 UK-based print suppliers.

I worked on this project for all those spies out there, and yes it's true about the numbers. RM spends at least £700 million p.a. on procurement.

Print spend as you can see from the numbers of rosters is highly fragmented across the business. So it's much easier to streamline this rather than try and get rid of several postmen!!!!
