Summary of the contracting process

HMRC is seeking tenders for the "Trader Support Service," aimed at providing essential support for businesses as they adapt to the Northern Ireland Protocol changes. This procurement, classified under business and management consultancy and related services, has an estimated value of £200 million. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with submissions due by 29 August 2020. The service is expected to commence on 1 January 2021 and will operate until 31 December 2023. It is relevant not only to companies based in the United Kingdom but also to those in British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World.

The Trader Support Service presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in management consultancy, logistics, and compliance services. With the government's commitment to ensuring seamless trade between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, firms equipped to support traders and carriers through the upcoming changes will find this tender particularly relevant. The open procedure allows for broad participation, but businesses must navigate the HMRC's SAP Ariba platform to submit their bids. This tender is an excellent chance for companies looking to expand their service offerings in the context of new regulatory environments brought about by Brexit.

The Authority intends to use the Open Procedure. Economic Operators wishing to review the documentation and submit an Request to Participate will need to obtain access to the HMRC eSourcing tool, SAP Ariba as follows.

(Further information about HMRC's SAP Ariba is available on the HMRC website: www.hmrc.gov.uk/about/supplying.htm) Economic operators who have used HMRC's SAP Ariba previously will be registered as part of the HMRC Ariba Supplier Network and you should access the system to obtain your account ID number.

Previously registered users having difficulty recovering their account ID number or identifying users within their organisation should email for assistance sapariba.hmrcsupport@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk. Economic operators using HMRC's SAP Ariba for the first time, including suppliers who are already registered on the wider SAP Ariba supplier network, will need to register at http://hmrc.supplier-eu.ariba.com/ad/register/SSOActions?type=full.
