Council chooses CFH to handle electoral forms

CFH Total Document Management has been awarded a contract by Bath and North East Somerset Council (B&NES) to produce its annual canvass documentation.

The Radstock-based business will be responsible for the print, production and distribution of electoral canvass forms for all households in the region.

CFH picked up the business following a referral by GWE Business West – an economic development organisation – and will use its DocVote system to produce the stationery.

Forms will be bar-coded for easy identification by the council and CFH will mail them out using its downstream access model, to save on postal costs.

Managing director Dave Broadway said: "We are delighted to have been awarded this contract from B&NES, following a referral through GWE Business West. It's encouraging for organisations to work together in this way to support business in the region."

CFH already works with councils in the UK to produce electoral stationery and local authority bills.
