UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process undertaken by London North Eastern Railway Limited (LNER) involved the direct award of a contract for "Transaction and Balance Sheet Conciliation Software" to Trintech (UK) Limited. Located in York, United Kingdom, LNER required a tailored reconciliation system to efficiently manage and audit payment transactions across multiple platforms, including online and onboard services. This process, categorised under "Software package and information systems," was conducted under a direct procurement method due to the specialised nature of the product and associated technical complexities. The contract was awarded on 30th July 2026, with the subsequent implementation phase spanning from 12th August 2026 to 31st July 2027.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, particularly for enterprises specialising in financial software development and implementation. Businesses with expertise in SAAS platforms capable of handling complex transactional data, especially those tailored to public undertakings, stand to benefit. The direct award route underscores the potential for businesses providing unique, high-demand solutions to secure contracts with public bodies, especially those focused on enhancing financial governance and reconciliation processes. The procurement also signals an advantageous scenario for large-scale enterprises capable of deploying robust, comprehensive solutions that align with specified public sector requirements and standards.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Transaction and Balance Sheet Concilliation Software

Notice Description

Trintech Matcher is transactional reconciliation system, matching individual sales made with a payment card/PayPal to the payment service providers processing records - this effectively is a check that each sale has a payment. Non-matching items are investigated and issues reported for corrective action. The system covers LNER Online, Travel Centres, Onboard, and TVM transactions, which cover most of LNER's card transactions and all PayPal transactions. Due to the volume of payment transactions, it would not be possible to reconcile these without a tailor made reconciliation system . Balancer is a tool for the recording of Balance Sheet reconciliation, providing finance with a standard format for reviewing reconciliations, with the allocation of recs, their progress through to submission being viewable, and back up documents being accessible to reviewers and is essential for LNER's governance processes. Both systems are SAAS, with a number of licences for each application.

Procurement Information

Because of the niche nature of the product, and complexity of the setup, including data feeds from circa 14 sources, the total cost to move and the risk involved would pose disproportionate technical difficulties and costs to LNER.
