Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council has completed the procurement process for the provision of debt resolution services, culminating in the establishment of a framework agreement. The procurement, initiated under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54, has been structured to serve Derby City Council and potentially Derby Homes. This was conducted using a competitive flexible procedure, a selective procurement method involving two stages: the initial stage assessing suppliers' standing and abilities, followed by a quality and pricing evaluation. This framework, divided into three lots—Enforcement, Litigation, and Data Analytics Services—seeks to address various debt management needs such as council tax, business rates, and social care debt recovery. The procurement stage is at the award phase, with contracts set to commence on 1st August 2026 and potentially extend until 2030. Key suppliers include Equita Limited, BRISTOW & SUTOR, DUKES BAILIFFS LIMITED, among others. The contracting location is primarily within Derby, UK region UKF11, and any changes in local government could impact service demand.

This framework presents numerous opportunities for business growth, attracting a diverse range of suppliers from SMEs to large organisations. Businesses with expertise in enforcement, litigation, and data analytics services are particularly well-suited to thrive under this procurement. The flexibility inherent in the framework allows suppliers to bid on multiple or individual lots, offering opportunities for strategic partnerships and expanding service portfolios. Derby City Council’s focus on quality over price in certain lots emphasises the council’s commitment to service excellence, making it an ideal opportunity for businesses that prioritise quality delivery. The possibility of increased demand due to local government reorganisation further underscores the potential for growth and expansion for participating businesses.

Notice Title

TD2291 - Debt Resolution Services

Notice Description

Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish a framework for the Provision of Debt Resolution Services. Although the framework is being established for use by Derby City Council, Derby Homes will also be eligible to make use of this framework should they elect to do so. This framework is being established to provide a Corporate Debt Management Services which include but not limited to: - Service to cover Council Tax and Business Rates, Commercial Rents, Over Paid Housing Benefits - Social Care and Miscellaneous Sundry Debt recovery. - Along with Litigation Service and Data - Analytics (Perennity to Pay) The framework will be divided into three lots, and Suppliers may choose to submit proposals for one or more lots. A minimum of three Suppliers will be appointed for Lot 1, while one Supplier will be appointed for Lot 2 and Lot 3 respectively. * Lot One - Enforcement Services. * Lot Two - Litigation Services. * Lot Three - Data Analytics Services. The Competitive Flexible procedure will be conducted in two stages: Stage One - Initial Stage: This will be the PSQ stage that suppliers complete to be set up on the Central Digital Platform such as their economic and financial standing and their technical / professional ability. The Council will also ask a series of pass/fail questions which bidders have to complete. Only bidders that have passed this stage will be accepted on to Stage Two. Stage Two - Quality and Pricing: Bidders will need to complete a series of quality questions based on how they will carry out the contract and also complete the pricing sheet for their tendered lots. Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the framework. For this framework it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups. For further details please visit the government website: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/local-government-reorganisationpolicy- and-programme-updates. The core framework value for Lot two is estimated at PS100,000 while lot three is estimated at PS45,000, based on current known service requirements. No budget has been allocated to Lot 1, as this represents an income-generating element for the Authority. Due to the potential impact of the Local Government Reorganisation this value may rise by 100%. Therefore, Lot two could see a rise of up to PS100,000 and Lot three by an additional PS45,000. These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Authority cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Framework should the need arise.

        "description": "Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish a framework for the Provision of Debt Resolution Services. Although the framework is being established for use by Derby City Council, Derby Homes will also be eligible to make use of this framework should they elect to do so. This framework is being established to provide a Corporate Debt Management Services which include but not limited to: - Service to cover Council Tax and Business Rates, Commercial Rents, Over Paid Housing Benefits - Social Care and Miscellaneous Sundry Debt recovery. - Along with Litigation Service and Data - Analytics (Perennity to Pay) The framework will be divided into three lots, and Suppliers may choose to submit proposals for one or more lots. A minimum of three Suppliers will be appointed for Lot 1, while one Supplier will be appointed for Lot 2 and Lot 3 respectively. * Lot One - Enforcement Services. * Lot Two - Litigation Services. * Lot Three - Data Analytics Services. The Competitive Flexible procedure will be conducted in two stages: Stage One - Initial Stage: This will be the PSQ stage that suppliers complete to be set up on the Central Digital Platform such as their economic and financial standing and their technical / professional ability. The Council will also ask a series of pass/fail questions which bidders have to complete. Only bidders that have passed this stage will be accepted on to Stage Two. Stage Two - Quality and Pricing: Bidders will need to complete a series of quality questions based on how they will carry out the contract and also complete the pricing sheet for their tendered lots. Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the framework. For this framework it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups. For further details please visit the government website: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/local-government-reorganisationpolicy- and-programme-updates. The core framework value for Lot two is estimated at PS100,000 while lot three is estimated at PS45,000, based on current known service requirements. No budget has been allocated to Lot 1, as this represents an income-generating element for the Authority. Due to the potential impact of the Local Government Reorganisation this value may rise by 100%. Therefore, Lot two could see a rise of up to PS100,000 and Lot three by an additional PS45,000. These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Authority cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Framework should the need arise.",
