Cheque Processing Services

Tender description

In the light of industry developments in the processing of cheque-based payments, HMRC is looking to implement a scanned image and data extraction solution to replace current data capture and management processes and allow industry-standard data to be passed to HMRC's banking partners and relevant data to transfer directly into HMRC's systems. Timeframe for implementation of the selected solution will be by end October 2019. Market engagement will be in two parts: Part one will be to set up a question and answer opportunity on our e-sourcing portal, which will allow interested parties to provide information on how best our outline requirements can be met. This information will be then used to further develop our requirement in readiness for a future tender exercise. Part two will be to potentially hold a supplier day during week commencing 5 November 2018, but this is subject to change and confirmation. Solutions involving both the acquisition of relevant equipment and software and externally-managed propositions will be considered. Parties who are interested in providing information across the e-sourcing portal and/or attending the supplier day will need to register on our SAP Ariba portal, as described below.
