Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority for the provision of Pension Services has reached the award stage. This contract, valued at £1,600,000, falls under the "Pension services" category and will benefit the West Yorkshire Police. The contract period is set from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2029, with the award recently made active on 21st July 2025. The services will be primarily delivered in the Leeds area, specifically at the LS1 2DE postal code. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, involving a call-off from a framework agreement, ensuring compliance with public sector procurement norms and timelines.

This contract represents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in pension administration and management services. Given the procurement's classification and the value involved, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as those organisations not exclusively reliant on traditional public sector projects, could find this contract appealing. With XPS Administration Limited, an SME, being the awarded supplier, it underscores the potential for similar entities to succeed in such tenders, promoting business expansion and greater sector engagement.
