Summary of the contracting process

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) is initiating a pre-market engagement exercise titled "Haulage, Storage and Disposal of seized fuel products, chemicals and associated equipment." This planning stage is focused on suppliers with expertise in the government support services industry, particularly those capable of managing seized fuel and hazardous materials. The engagement process involves a Request for Information (RFI) to be circulated via the HMRC's eSourcing tool, MyBuy (SAP Ariba). Interested suppliers must register by 28th February 2022 to participate, and further details will be communicated through the Ariba system. This procurement could have an estimated value of £7,800,000 and encompasses operations across the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in logistics, hazardous waste management, and security services. Companies that have established systems for the safe and environmentally friendly transport, storage, and disposal of seized goods are particularly well-suited for this contract. Additionally, firms with capabilities to provide timely support services to HMRC's enforcement teams and those that understand the legalities around fuel duty regulations will benefit from engaging in this procurement process. The successful candidates will play a crucial role in enhancing HMRC’s management of seized assets while maximising commercial returns on these disposals.

Notice Title

Haulage, Storage and Disposal of seized fuel products, chemicals and associated equipment

Notice Description

One of the key sources of revenue collection for which HMRC is responsible is duty on road fuels. Road fuel duty is charged at the full rate on fuels predominantly used for road use, with reduced rates on fuels used predominately in agricultural vehicles (typically gas oil or red diesel) or effectively a nil rate on fuel used for residential heating (such as kerosene). As gas oil and kerosene attract lower or nil rates of duty they cannot normally be legally used as a road fuel and both are marked with dyes and chemicals so that they can be easily identified. The resultant lower cost of these fuels unfortunately leads to some misuse in road vehicles, either directly or, for example, after processing ("laundering") to remove the dyes. The strategy used to combat fraudulent behaviour is enforced in part by Mobile Enforcement Teams (METs) based at various locations across the United Kingdom. These teams are responsible for detecting and deterring oils fraud by, for example, testing road vehicles, fuel retail stations and stock tanks. The METs typically work every day throughout the year, including at weekends and overnight. Teams are also on call 24/7 so they can respond to urgent incidents. As a result of this activity HMRC seizes and removes a wide range of vehicles, fuel, chemicals and various types of plant, equipment and materials. The successful contractor is required to uplift/remove, haul, store and dispose of fuel products, chemicals, vehicles, machinery and associated equipment seized during the course of its activities. This must be done fully in compliance with all relevant legislation and the successful bidder must accordingly hold the necessary waste managing licence(s).

    "description": "HMRC is conducting a pre-market engagement exercise to understand the capabilities, innovation and opportunities available in the marketplace for Haulage, Storage and Disposal of seized fuel products, chemicals and associated equipment. This pre-market engagement process involves two key elements: (i) supplier engagement and (ii) a Request for Information (RFI) The RFI will be issued to registered parties via HMRC's eSourcing tool 'MyBuy' (SAP Ariba). The RFI will include a number of questions that HMRC is looking to the market to respond to. The answers to these questions by interested parties will be critically important in assisting HMRC to formulate its requirements for any future procurement process. HMRC is keen to ensure that its requirements for this procurement are aligned to market expectations. HMRC is particularly interested in hearing from parties that have achieved outcomes of a similar nature, including those that have delivered increased value through economies of scale, operational efficiencies and/or alternative methods of delivering service in respect of similar projects. Further details and registration for the pre market engagement activity will be completed electronically though HMRC's SAP Ariba eSourcing tool. You will be required to advise your interest to gareth.edwards3@hmrc.gov.uk to be added to the Ariba event and complete a short questionnaire upon registration, via the Ariba system. Suppliers using HMRCs Ariba for the first time, will need to register at: http://hmrc.supplier-eu.ariba.com/ad/register/SSOActions?type=full As part of the registration process you will receive a system generated email. Once you have obtained your account ID (AN) number, please email gareth.edwards3@hmrc.gov.uk with the following information: - The contract title shown in Section II.1.1 - Your organisation's HMRC SAP Ariba account ID To receive the an invite to market engagement and the follow on RFI please register your interest by the 28th February 2022. Interested parties should note that participation in this pre-market engagement exercise is not a prerequisite to participating in any subsequent procurement process. HMRC is committed to ensuring that all parties are treated equally and any information shared during the pre-market engagement will be made available once any formal procurement process is initiated.",
