Description

The requirement Defra Group has a current Office Solutions contract in place which may require re-procuring. We are looking to establish what the market has to offer for example: • What innovative & sustainable office goods are available & their costs in comparison to standard core catalogue items & how they can support us with our Greening Government Commitment targets and Sustainability Strategy. This market research aims to provide Defra Group with an overview of the current market position and how our office solutions can help to achieve Defra's priority outcomes. Defra group is committed to making the shift from a linear to a circular economy approach, minimising our demand for primary resources and maximising the reuse of the resources already in the network. We also have a target under the Greening Government Commitments to fully remove consumer single use plastics from our office estate. You can view a definition of consumer single use plastics and examples in Appendix 1. We know our supply chain is crucial in meeting this objective. We would be grateful for information on the following key points, bearing in mind our circular economy objective and target on single use plastic removal. If you are interested in submitting a response, please can you register your interest via email to dgcofficesolutions@defra.gov.uk. All correspondence must be made via the messaging function. The deadline for submitting a response is 31/10/2023 at 12:00.
