## Summary

The HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has awarded a contract for a 'Secure Courier Service' under a selective procurement method. The contract value is £1,056,000, with a contract period from September 22, 2023, to September 21, 2026. The procurement stage is complete, with the tender period ending on May 9, 2023. The service falls under the main procurement category of services and is classified under courier services. The contract has been awarded to CITYSPRINT LIMITED, with the HMRC being the buying organization located in London, England.

This tender for a 'Secure Courier Service' awarded by HMRC provides growth opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, and those in the courier services industry. Businesses well-suited to compete are those capable of providing secure transportation services for seized digital items between FIS property stores and C&DF laboratories. The contract, valued at £1,056,000, presents a two-year opportunity for suitable businesses to participate in the established framework agreement for courier services.

## Notice

HMRC currently have two separate secure courier call offs which are split across the forensic evidence requirements (including fuel samples) and the Managed Data Transfer Service (MDTS) requirements (Now Secure Data Exchange (SDES)). These were previously let separately due to the make up of the CCS framework. There has now been a new framework awarded which allows all of these requirements to be tendered together.
