    "noEngagementNoticeRationale": "The City has not conducted any Preliminary Market Engagement prior to the issuing of the Tender Notice, due to the following.  \nPrior to the commencement of the Procurement Act 2023 (PA2023) in February, the department undertook informal market engagement with several leading suppliers in the industry. This engagement indicated that the scope of the services, as well as the expected outputs and deliverables, had not materially changed since the start of the current contract.  \nDue to delays in procurement planning and the need to avoid a gap in service delivery, the department was unable to initiate and complete a formal Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) process in accordance with the PA2023. By the time the Act came into force, there was insufficient time to conduct a compliant PME process without jeopardising the timely award of a new contract.  \nThe department made the decision to proceed directly to tender to ensure continuity of service and to meet critical operational timelines."

    "description": "The scope of the contract is to provide an enforcement service to take all necessary steps to collect unpaid Business Rates, Business Improvement Levy, Council Tax and unpaid Parking and Traffic warrants. There is also an option to extend the service to other debt types such as commercial rent, unpaid housing rent, and unpaid miscellaneous income debts. \nThe scope of the contract is further detailed in the Specification document.  \nIt is the City\u2019s intention to award contracts to the three top ranked bidders with the highest overall tender scores. The City\u2019s Revenue\u2019s team will work directly with the top two, and the 3rd placed bidder will be reserve supplier (used on a contingency basis), dependent on volume and performance of the top two. The City\u2019s Parking Ticket team will work directly with each of the top 3 bidders. For the call-off process relating to the distribution of work across successful bidders, please see Appendix D of the service specification \u2013 Tender Specification document. \nParking enforcement will award cases equaling all three of the top scoring bidders.\u202f \nThis tendering exercise is being undertaken using the electronic tendering system \u2018City of London Corporation Sourcing \u0026 Contracts Portal\u2019 (https://cityoflondon.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/). Suppliers will need to register an interest on the system in order to participate and registration is free. \nThe estimated contract value given at sections 31 and 32 is for the full duration of the contract including the maximum possible extensions. The estimated annual contract value is therefore \u00a36,518,000.",
