This initiative is aimed at ensuring a fully managed payroll and pension service, with a primary contract period of two years and the potential for a one-year extension. Interested parties should engage by 16th November 2020, as the buying organisation seeks to gather feedback through a Request for Information (RFI) exercise, the details of which can be accessed via their e-procurement portal. The services are intended to be available across various locations, including the UK and British Overseas Territories. This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in payroll and pensions management, particularly those that can offer comprehensive service solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate in the RFI, providing their insights into potential service delivery. Engaging in this process not only allows businesses to showcase their capabilities but also helps inform the final requirements of NHS Digital, creating a pathway for future contract opportunities. ## Notice NHS Digital is seeking to procure a new contract for the provision of a payroll and pensions service. This Prior Information Notice (PIN) informs the market of the potential opportunity should a contract notice be published at a later date. We envisage the potential contract will be for a fully managed payroll provision with an initial term of two years with an optional extension of a further twelve months. We envisage this to include end to end payroll processing including a service to manage overpayments recovery and expenses processing as well as a fully managed NHS pension provision. Before any formal procurement commences, NHS Digital wants to actively engage with potential and suitably experienced suppliers in the market to help understand what solutions they can deliver and how and what could be delivered. To that end we are running a running a "request for information" (RFI) exercise which sets out in summary the background to the requirement and our current vision and requests suppliers to provide some structured feedback via a series of questions. Participation in the RfI is entirely optional and neither advantages nor disadvantages any potential tenderers participation later should NHS Digital publish a formal contract notice and invitation to tender. If you wish to register for the RfI, please register on the our e-procurement portal: https://nhsdigital.bravosolution.co.uk and access the opportunity listing. You will then be able to download the RfI details and document. Potential providers are advised that participating in the RfI exercise does not: - constitute a formal expression of interest, intention or commitment to submit a tender response, - give any advantage over any potential provider(s) who do not participate in the RfI. The contracting authority may, without prejudice, use feedback from the WebEx to help inform the development of the potential requirement. The short description of the potential services in this Early Engagement Notice is, therefore, subject to change. Potential providers are advised that should the contracting authority subsequently publish a formal contract notice, the procurement will be managed (including the submission of tender responses) via the contracting authority's e-procurement portal, Bravo. To register an account, please visit: https://nhsdigital.bravosolution.co.uk Should the contracting authority subsequently move to a formal procurement exercise it will be appear on Tenders Electronic Daily and Contracts Finder via publication of the appropriate notices. Potential providers may wish to monitor Tenders Electronic Daily and Contracts Finder. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b09d1b61-b451-4837-ad3a-7637444a3ef5 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Oct 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 16 Nov 2020 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS DIGITAL | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS1 6AE | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Hunslet & Riverside | | Westminster constituency | Leeds South | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79211110 - Payroll management services ## Release History - 30 Oct 2020 at 10:59 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b09d1b61-b451-4837-ad3a-7637444a3ef5 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b09d1b61-b451-4837-ad3a-7637444a3ef5 30th October 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/67bdcdfd-8550-4c2b-933b-8838222f31c0 n/a ## Notice URLs - https://digital.nhs.uk/ - https://nhsdigital.bravosolution.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
