## About this tender

Places for People are seeking to appoint providers to be appointed onto a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of Enforcement Agency Services which will be utilised and owned by Places for People Procurement Hub.

This includes the collection of all debt types which a Contracting Authority may have a requirement to collect and other services an Enforcement Agent can typically provide. Examples of the debt types include but are not limited to; council tax, parking fines, non-domestic rates/business rates, road traffic fines, sundry debt, housing benefits overpayments, social care debts and university accommodation fees. Examples of other services may include but are not limited to repossessions, evictions, tracing services and debt collection advice/consultancy.

The DPS will be not be divided into defined Lots. Instead contractors are asked to complete a matrix to provide details of the geographical areas that they can undertake. Suppliers can apply for as many areas as they wish.

It will be expected that Contracting Authorities will have the appropriate authority and orders to allow the Enforcement Agents to carry out the services. Examples include, but are not limited to, Liability Orders, Writ of Control or Repossession Orders.

All providers must be registered Enforcement Officers and/or High Court Enforcement Officers and comply with The Taking Control of Goods Regulations 2013, The Taking Control of Goods (Fees) Regulations 2014 and The Certification of Enforcement Agents Regulations 2014 (including any amendments).

Space has been provided in the online questions for potential service providers to indicate what debt types they can collect and what other services they can offer. This is for information purposes only and does not form any basis for evaluation or acceptance onto the DPS.

It is not a requirement of the establishment of the DPS for potential service providers to collect all debt types and to offer other services.

Contracting Authorities will not use this additional services information to pre-select the providers invited to take part in their further competition.

Any debt types and other services a potential services provider can offer can be amended at any time during the life of the DPS.

This procurement is being undertaken by Places for People the contracting authority for itself and as lead authority for the benefit of other organisations that will be set out in the contract notice. Accordingly, it is the intention that these other UK public organisations should be able to rely on this procurement to purchase such services without the need for any further OJEU procurement process via mini-competition. The Hub can be joined by Contracting Authorities and stream-lines processes for members of the Hub, reducing time and expense incurred in such procurement processes.
