How to win: PRELIMINARY MARKET ENGAGEMENT - PROVISION OF STATIONERY

About this contract

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG) is seeking to appoint a stationery supplier to provide a comprehensive range of office stationery products at competitive rates. WCHG is committed to advancing sustainability across its operations and is actively seeking to minimise waste and energy consumption. Suppliers are therefore encouraged to propose sustainable options for the products we are looking to purchase. These may include, but are not limited to, products manufactured from recycled or FSC-certified materials, plastic free items or those made from renewable or biodegradable materials such as bamboo or wood, refillable or reusable product options. We would like to ensure potential suppliers can evidence value for money and outline how their supply chains support ethical labour practices. WCHG would also be keen for suppliers to evidence their commitment to sustainability within their own operations, including reducing waste and plastic packaging, the use of carbon-conscious logistics and delivery methods.
