This planning stage is focused on suppliers with expertise in the government support services industry, particularly those capable of managing seized fuel and hazardous materials. The engagement process involves a Request for Information (RFI) to be circulated via the HMRC's eSourcing tool, MyBuy (SAP Ariba). Interested suppliers must register by 28th February 2022 to participate, and further details will be communicated through the Ariba system. This procurement could have an estimated value of £7,800,000 and encompasses operations across the UK. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in logistics, hazardous waste management, and security services. Companies that have established systems for the safe and environmentally friendly transport, storage, and disposal of seized goods are particularly well-suited for this contract. Additionally, firms with capabilities to provide timely support services to HMRC's enforcement teams and those that understand the legalities around fuel duty regulations will benefit from engaging in this procurement process. The successful candidates will play a crucial role in enhancing HMRC’s management of seized assets while maximising commercial returns on these disposals. ## Notice One of the key sources of revenue collection for which HMRC is responsible is duty on road fuels. Road fuel duty is charged at the full rate on fuels predominantly used for road use, with reduced rates on fuels used predominately in agricultural vehicles (typically gas oil or red diesel) or effectively a nil rate on fuel used for residential heating (such as kerosene). As gas oil and kerosene attract lower or nil rates of duty they cannot normally be legally used as a road fuel and both are marked with dyes and chemicals so that they can be easily identified. The resultant lower cost of these fuels unfortunately leads to some misuse in road vehicles, either directly or, for example, after processing ("laundering") to remove the dyes. The strategy used to combat fraudulent behaviour is enforced in part by Mobile Enforcement Teams (METs) based at various locations across the United Kingdom. These teams are responsible for detecting and deterring oils fraud by, for example, testing road vehicles, fuel retail stations and stock tanks. The METs typically work every day throughout the year, including at weekends and overnight. Teams are also on call 24/7 so they can respond to urgent incidents. As a result of this activity HMRC seizes and removes a wide range of vehicles, fuel, chemicals and various types of plant, equipment and materials. The successful contractor is required to uplift/remove, haul, store and dispose of fuel products, chemicals, vehicles, machinery and associated equipment seized during the course of its activities. This must be done fully in compliance with all relevant legislation and the successful bidder must accordingly hold the necessary waste managing licence(s). ### Lot Information Northern Ireland (SR817742337) For both lot 1 and 2 The successful contractor(s) will be required to have; - Baseline security cleared staff to deliver the service - support HMRC's front line staff in the exercise of their duties through the provision of effective support services; - provide a safe, environmentally-friendly and cost-effective service for the uplift, haulage, storage and ultimate disposal of seized fuel products, equipment, associated vehicles and hazardous substances; - ensure the security of seized goods in storage; - facilitate implementation of HMRC's policy on early disposal of seized fuel products; - implement HMRC's policy to maximise commercial benefits (revenue return) from the disposal of seized fuel products, vehicles and equipment; - minimise health and safety risks to both HMRC and its contractors involved in the uplift and movement of seized fuel products and the dismantling of illicit fuel plants, occasionally in challenging situations; and - Minimise risks to the environment with the uplift and movement of seized fuel products and the dismantling of illicit fuel plants .
