The process is currently at the award stage, with the contract valued at £13,572 and signed on 14th July 2021. The tender was launched on 26th May 2021, with the submission deadline set for 16th June 2021, and is classified under the services industry category, specifically relating to general public services and environmental protection. The procurement method used for this contract was an open procedure, allowing suppliers to submit their bids on an electronic platform.

This tender presents an opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in cash collection services or related support services to engage with local government operations. Businesses with a track record in delivering secure cash handling solutions, backed by relevant certifications such as ISO 9001 for quality management and risk assessments, would be particularly well-suited to compete.
