## Summary

The Brighton & Hove City Council is currently in the planning stage of procuring direct payment support services through a pre-market engagement process titled "Direct Payment Support Pre-market Engagement." This procurement falls under the banking services industry category, with specific classifications including individual pension services and payroll management services. The engagement is set to conclude on 23 February 2018, prompting interested suppliers to prepare ahead of this deadline for future opportunities related to the commissioning of these services. The primary location for service delivery will be in the South East of England, specifically at the council's headquarters in Hove.
