Summary of the contracting process

The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman initiated a tender process titled "Government Procurement (Purchase) Cards" for a public sector card solution within the financial and insurance services sector. The procurement process is now complete, with the contract having an awarded value of £190,000, which is part of a larger framework agreement worth £75,000. The contract period commenced on 1st August 2020 and will conclude on 2nd December 2022. The tender period ended on 31st July 2020, and the primary delivery address is located in Manchester, England.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in payment solutions and financial services, particularly those that can navigate framework agreements and offer competitive card solutions. Given the nature of the contract, larger suppliers are likely to be better suited to compete for such opportunities, although the participation of smaller entities might be beneficial. Companies proficient in delivering similar services are encouraged to consider how they could provide value to this public sector requirement, potentially capitalising on established relationships within the industry.
