Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Bromley procured a payment management system for processing card payment transactions online and by telephone. The requirement is a financial transaction-processing service, including the technology and operational capability needed to handle payments through both channels. The work is for London Borough of Bromley and is delivered in Bromley, London. The procurement is classified as financial consultancy, financial transaction processing and clearing-house services, although the stated requirement is specifically a payment management system rather than general financial advice. The requirement was arranged as a single package, covering the complete system and its use for the council’s online and telephone card-payment activity. It is relevant to payment technology providers, transaction-processing businesses and suppliers able to support public-sector payment operations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. London Borough of Bromley made a direct award under the PFH Framework for Electronic Payment Systems, reference 2023/S 000-022827. Access Paysuite Ltd was awarded the contract on 18 March 2026 for £3,497,643. The contract is active and the award is active. Evaluation was based on price. One bid was recorded. The tender package was marked cancelled, but the procurement nevertheless records an active award and active contract to Access Paysuite Ltd. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement, and the stated rationale was that the procurement fell outside the scope of the relevant directive.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a substantial requirement from London Borough of Bromley for a payment system handling card transactions through online and telephone channels. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a functioning payment-management platform, reliable transaction processing, and the ability to support both digital and telephone payment journeys for a local authority. The successful route was a direct award through the PFH Framework for Electronic Payment Systems, so relevant framework access and experience of supplying through that route would be commercially important. Providers should also be able to evidence dependable service delivery at the scale required by a council, clear price competitiveness, and the operational resilience needed for public-sector payment processing.
