This open procurement method is currently at the Tender stage, with proposals due by 28 June 2019. The contract is expected to commence on 2 September 2019 and could last up to five years, with a total estimated value of £1,800,000, equating to an annual forecast of £360,000. Services will be required at multiple locations within London, specifically at the postal code EC2P 2EJ. This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialised in bailiff and parking enforcement services. Companies with capabilities in debt collection and a proven track record in public service contracts would be especially well-suited to compete. The competitive nature of the bidding process, which intends to award the contract to the three top-ranked bidders, offers a chance for established firms as well as SMEs to expand their service offerings in the public sector. ## Notice The City of London invites Tenders for the provision of Enforcement Agents. The scope of the contract is to provide an enforcement service to take all necessary steps to collect unpaid Business Rates, Business Improvement Levy, Council Tax and unpaid Parking and Traffic warrants. There is also an option to extend the service to other debt types such as commercial rent or unpaid housing rent. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 5 years. The estimated contract value given is for the full duration of the contract including the maximum possible extensions. The estimated contract value is PS1,800,000 over 5 years. The annual estimated value is PS360,000. This value is based on estimated fees that awarded Bidders will collect. These values are based on historic and anticipated future demand and are for indicative purposes only, there is no guarantee that these will be achieved over the life of the contract. It is the City's intention to award contracts to the three top ranked Bidders with the highest overall tender scores. The City's Revenue's team will work directly with the top 2, and the 3rd placed Bidder will be reserve supplier. The City's Parking Ticket team will work directly with each of the top 3 Bidders. Please refer to the tender document for the division process relating to the distribution of work across successful Bidders.
