Summary of the contracting process

The British Transport Police has completed a procurement process for mail collection and delivery services, valued at £385,000, under the CPV classification for post and courier services. The tender, titled "Mail Collection and Delivery Services," was awarded to DX Network Services Limited and commenced on 1 July 2021, lasting until 30 June 2022. The procurement was executed through a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 2 June 2021, with the award notice published on 18 June 2021, encompassing services that require secure management of sensitive items delivered outside regular office hours.

This opportunity presents significant potential for growth for businesses specialised in logistics and courier services, particularly those that can offer secure, reliable, and time-sensitive mail handling. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities in managing internal mail services and a proven track record in secure transport will find this tender especially relevant. The ability to handle a high volume of tracked items and adapt logistics to complex site requirements may also provide a competitive advantage.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Mail Collection and Delivery Services

Notice Description

The requirement is for an internal mail service to transfer documentation, evidential samples, discs of CCTV, and low value items between sites, ranging from small envelopes to large crates, and include over 10,000 tracked items. Because of the nature of BTP's premises, it is not possible to make deliveries/collections directly into every site; the service provider is required to make available secure locations for these sites to access and use. Service provision includes collection and delivery of items meeting the following criteria: * Up to 2000g (2kg) in weight; * Up to 450mm x 350mm x 80 mm in size; * Unsorted; and * Non-Machinable Collection and Delivery shall take place outside of office hours (before 09.00, after 17.00), and delivered next working day. Due to the sensitivity of the items transported a closed delivery network is required - management of the items remains solely with the provider from collection to delivery, and they are not passed onto a third party.
