There is an existing contract for WCC's fleet of Multifunctional Devices (MFDs / printers) and print management software used across the estate which has been in place with a single supplier, Canon. There are approximate…
ly 150 devices spread across WCC sites, the majority of which are still in regular use.
Although the devices are approaching the later stages of their expected lifecycle, the majority still have an estimated two years of viable and cost-effective operational life remaining. The Council is unable to
accurately specify its future requirements due to its inclusion in the on-going local government reorganisation process and has therefore decided to enter into a new contract with Canon to extend the agreement for the current devices.
