Isle of Man Post Office (IOMPO) is running a tender exercise (on the Isle of Man Government procurement website) for the provision of counter services in the vicinity of the existing Windsor Road Post Office in Douglas.
It comes following the decision by the incumbent sub postmaster to terminate her contract for service with effect from 10th July 2024. IOMPO is seeking to maintain counter, postal and bill payment services in this area and invites submissions from interested parties who could provide these services. This opportunity is for a fixed period, until 31st March 2025, with the option to extend one year.
Stu Peters MHK, Chairman of Isle of Man Post Office said: “I would like to place on record our grateful thanks to the outgoing sub postmistress Lynda Braidwood for the services she and her team have provided on our behalf and that of our commercial partners for 43 years.”
He continued: “By starting the expression of interest now, it will allow us to adhere to the required procurement protocol and understand what interest there may be from existing or new businesses in the community.”
The closing date for expressing an interest is noon on Tuesday 2nd April 2024. Information can be found online on IOMPO’s website www.iompost.com/about/procurement-activities/ and on the Isle of Man Government website www.gov.im/categories/business-and-industries/expressions-of-interest/
