Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is initiated by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) for a contract titled "Courier Services", aimed at the courier services industry. The procurement is currently in the planning stage with a total budget of £12 million, having a minimum value set at £10 million. Key dates include a supplier engagement event scheduled for 25th January 2017 in Lincoln, where potential suppliers can learn more about the requirements, including details on the contract period from 31st August 2017 to 30th July 2021. The services will cover deliveries to and from diverse locations including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the courier and logistics sector, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as HMRC is open to supplier engagement and may divide the contract into lots. The emphasis on security for transporting small goods and sensitive paperwork makes this a specialised area that may suit businesses with robust security protocols and those looking to enhance their service offerings. Interested parties are encouraged to engage with the upcoming supplier event to better understand HMRC's needs and align their proposals accordingly.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Courier Services

Notice Description

To support HMRC's business operations, we have a requirement for a modern, safe and reliable Courier Service the core element of which is to move small goods with a value of up to 500 GBP and paper (much of which contains customer data) between HMRC offices. Security of data as it moves is of paramount importance but we are looking for great value for money too. The contract may be divided into lots. This will be determined following the supplier engagement event. The Valuation Office Agency is an executive agency of HMRC and their requirements may be included in any subsequent call for competition. Additional information: HMRC will be holding a supplier engagement event in Lincoln on 25.1.2017 to provide an opportunity for potential suppliers to learn more about the requirement and procurement time-scales. The event also gives HMRC the opportunity to gather vital market information from suppliers which will help to shape and refine the service specification. The event will be structured to allow for a general presentation from HMRC business representatives including a Q&A session. We will then conduct 1-2-1 meetings providing an opportunity for both HMRC and suppliers to discuss the requirement in further detail. Due to venue limitations, we are restricting numbers to a maximum of 2 attendees per supplier. To attend the event, suppliers will need to register on the HMRC SAP Ariba eSourcing portal. Guidance on how to register can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/528355/SAP_Ariba_Sourcing_Professional_Supplier_s_Guide_-_June_2016.pdf. Further information about the supplier engagement event will be provided to suppliers expressing an interest in attending the supplier engagement event.
