Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process by Caerphilly County Borough Council involves the provision of cash collection and deposit services. This tender is related to the industry category of services, specifically targeting cash collection for the Council’s car parks and various establishments within the Caerphilly County Borough, identified under region UKL16. The procurement has reached the award stage, with the contract finalised on 30th July 2025. The procurement method employed was limited, involving a mini competition using an ESPO framework. This approach did not require the prior publication of a call for competition, and was necessitated by the response from only two organisations expressing interest.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in financial and security services, particularly those with expertise in handling cash logistics. Large-scale businesses such as those similar to the contract winner, G4S Cash Solutions (UK) Limited, are well-suited to compete, especially if they can operate effectively within the specified geographic region. The structured nature of the mini competition, conducted under a well-defined framework, encourages competition among capable suppliers, fostering business growth by aligning with the Council’s requirements for reliable and efficient cash handling services.
