## Summary

Bury Council has completed a procurement process for a "Framework Agreement for the Provision of Banking Services" on behalf of various Greater Manchester authorities and associated organisations. This open tender, valued at £5 million, was published on 14th May 2021, with the tender period concluding on 21st June 2021. The contract commenced on 15th September 2021 and is set to last until 14th September 2025, with services covering banking and investment categories primarily within the region of England, United Kingdom.

This procurement provides significant opportunities for financial institutions and banking service providers looking to establish long-term relationships with multiple public bodies across Greater Manchester. Companies that specialise in banking and investment services, particularly those capable of navigating public sector frameworks, would be well-suited to participate in future call-off orders generated under this framework. Engaging with this contract could enhance business growth, given the broad range of organisations involved, including arms-length management organisations and pension funds.

## Notice

Bury Council is leading a procurement process on behalf of GM authorities and organisations, associates and other named public bodies to establish a procurement framework to deliver Banking Services. The participating authorities are Blackpool, Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Rochdale, Oldham, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford and Wigan Councils, GM Fire & Rescue, GMP and Transport for Greater Manchester as part of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, Kirklees Council, and West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue. Other associates (Cheshire East and Warrington) are entitled to call-off from this framework if they so wish, however their requirements do not form part of the initial scope. Each Organisation that wishes to use the framework will enter into their own contract with the successful bidder by way of a call-off order. The wholly owned companies and Arms-Length Management Organisations (ALMOs) of the above-mentioned organisations are also entitled to use this framework. Tameside Council is the Administering Authority for the GM Pension Fund, whose requirements may also be called off under this framework.
