Summary of the contracting process

The Derby City Council has recently completed a procurement process titled "Secure BACS Payment Software as a Service" aimed at providing secure Bankers' Automated Clearing Services (BACS) for efficient payment transactions, including salaries and collections. This procurement, classified under the goods category (CPV 48400000), utilised a limited method due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. The council is located at The Council House, Corporation Street, Derby (postcode DE12FS) and actively signed a contract with Paygate Solutions Limited on 29th September 2021, with a value of £39,100. It is noted that the council plans to consider options for a replacement contract approximately 48 months into the current agreement.

This public procurement opportunity presents significant avenues for business growth, particularly for software providers and technology firms specialising in financial services and transaction processing. Given that the existing supplier has been in place for several years, new entrants or those capable of offering innovative solutions may find it advantageous to position themselves strategically for the upcoming replacements or additional requirements from the Derby City Council. Companies with capabilities in secure payment systems, such as BACS, would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders.
