The procurement process, initiated by the Accountant in Bankruptcy, involves the provision of credit checking services, specifically automated credit reference and HPI checks for debtors prior to bankruptcy awards. This open tender, identified as "AiB 2021/5", was awarded to Experian Ltd after an evaluation that resulted in a single bid.
