What the notice says

North Northamptonshire Council (hereafter known as "the Council") are looking to potentially implement an outsourced supplier solution for Outbound Mail that will enable remote/digital submission and supplier led processing of physical mail for distribution. This should include electronic delivery of mail. There is an interest in incorporating, at a later stage, the receipt of and digital forwarding of physical Inbound Mail. To support potential suppliers in relation to this Pre-Market Engagement exercise, the Council will look to share a Pre-Market Engagement document to establish further information. In order to receive this information, please email the Procurement mailbox (procurement@northnorthants.gov.uk)
