If you have comments or questions arising from the content of this deck we would welcome these being submitted in advance so that we can ensure that MaPS presenters cover as many of these as possible on the day. Please submit these clarifications through our survey which will remain open until the 21st May to ensure that post event reflections can also be captured. The link for the survey is: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/MaPSDebtCommissioningSurvey/ All survey responses will be considered as we finalise our requirements before the tender opportunity goes live. As this is not a call for evidence we will be unable to consider additional information (i.e. links or embedded docs) and we would encourage you to keep comments and clarifications as focused as possible. Wherever possible, we would also encourage organisations to submit collective questions or comments. Project Details The Authority intends to recommission all agreements for national and regional debt advice provision, small business debt advice and the administration of DROs. Commissioned services will cover England only. DROs will be delivered by Competent Authorities and will provide both national remote services and regional provision. National, regional and business debt advice will be commissioned through separate agreements. Organisations that wish to deliver debt advice must hold the relevant FCA authorisation (to provide debt advice) unless they have a valid FCA-authorised exemption. However, organisations wishing to take part in the bidding process do not need to have received FCA authorisation to bid or to act as a consortium lead during the delivery of services but must ensure the delivery partners are FCA authorised. The agreements shall be for three years with the option for a further two-year extension (all agreements will have an annual break clause as funding is subject to HMT/DWP approval on an annual cycle). Project Value The maximum combined value for all lots will be: PS192,500,000 m excluding VAT (for three years) or PS231,000,000 m including VAT (for three years)"
