Some of the volumetric data may currently be greatly reduced owing to Covid lockdown restrictions impacting delivery of the services. o The proposed solution must allow the payer to make payments completely via a standard landline telephone and not require the payer to have any type of web or internet access o Currently BCC use WorldPay, Civica WebPay, and chip and pin (PDQ) with Cardholder Not Present (CNP) (Barclaycard/Veriphone) solutions to take payments over the phone via BCC agents. The proposed solution should work alongside or provide some level of integration with these existing payment solutions. However, BCC may consider consolidating all payments to either WorldPay or Civica payment solutions. o For the most part business service areas use only one payment broker; however, within BCC's contact centre, agents currently take payments using both WorldPay and Civica payment solutions. It is not possible to separate these calls before they arrive at the agent. o The solution must work with Gamma, BT Cloud and mobile telephone carriers o The solution must work with both inbound and outbound calls o The solution must be able to work with the Cirrus Response contact centre solution, which is used for call handling and logging in some service areas. o The solution must not require the agents to have direct dial numbers, as these are not available in some areas. o Once the payment calls are within the BCC system, the proposed solution should not require the call to be passed back out again, as this would result in a significant increase in call charges from our carriers o The response should clearly state any minimum or maximum call volumes, and penalties or additional charges for going outside these tolerances. o BCC also operates an automated payment line using Civica WebPay, this is out of scope of this work and is mentioned for information only. Suppliers should quote for a 12-month contract, with the option to extend for another 12 months This contract will be for a period of 12 months commencing 1st February 2021 until 31st January 2022.
