Summary of the contracting process

Warwickshire Police is seeking services through a tender for a Payroll Managed Service, with an estimated contract value of £250,000. Classified under the "services" category, this procurement process falls within the realm of payroll management services (CPV code: 79211110). The contract, which is currently active, was awarded on 31 March 2021, following a limited procurement method due to extreme urgency created by unforeseen circumstances. The service is to be delivered in the Warwickshire region, with the procurement method involving an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as the current payroll services arrangement was due to end on 30 September 2021.

This tender presents business growth opportunities particularly for companies specializing in payroll management and related business services, including accounting and auditing. Businesses that can demonstrate proficiency in delivering comprehensive payroll services and are capable of managing existing contracts with public entities would be well-suited to compete. The expectation for external competition in 2023 also offers a pathway for new entrants to engage in future tenders, thereby expanding their portfolio within the public sector.

Notice Title

Payroll Managed Service

Notice Description

Provision of payroll bureau and managed service.

Procurement Information

Warwickshire Police payroll services are currently delivered via a combination of the West Mercia Police hosted payroll team and a payroll bureau service from an external supplier, Liberata. The West Mercia hosted service arrangement ends on 30 September 2021. A planned collaboration between Warwickshire Police and West Midlands Police who were due to take on the payroll service from September 2021 ended unexpectedly. To ensure business continuity it has been determined that the optimal solution for Warwickshire Police is for Liberata to continue to deliver the current bureau service in addition to the services currently delivered by West Mercia, thereby providing a fully managed payroll service. This contract award is therefore an extension of the existing service with Liberata. It is anticipated that payroll services will be subject to external competition in 2023.
