## Summary

H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has completed the procurement process for the provision of credit reference checks required for civil and criminal investigations. The contract, valued at £300,000, falls within the financial and insurance services industry category. The procurement process, initiated through a call-off from a framework agreement, concluded with the contract period beginning on 29 July 2024 and ending on 28 July 2028.
