Tender description

The proposed contract(s) are for debt management and enforcement services within the UK. The contracting authority, Transport of London (TfL), operates and enforces a number of road user charging (RUC) and transport enforcement (TE) schemes throughout Greater London. These together contribute to the realisation of the mayor's transport strategy. The contracts primarily support the RUC schemes and TE schemes comprising (a) congestion charging, (b) Low Emission Zone (LEZ), (c) traffic enforcement, (d) Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), and ULEZ Extension in October 2021. The proposed contract(s) may also include the recovery of outstanding debt accumulated from rent arrears on TfL's commercial property estate. TfL has appointed three (3) Suppliers to recover outstanding debt accumulated and to deter future evasion of payments within the existing or future road user charging or traffic enforcement schemes, or any debt accumulated by TfL from other areas of the business such as rent arrears on TfL's commercial property estate. The estimated contract value is a forecast of all future remittances over the total ten (10) year period of the contract (if TfL extends the contract beyond the initial term of 5 years) and consists of: (a) estimated debt recovery value (remittance to be paid to TfL); (b) estimated enforcement agency (EA) fees. This value will be split between the three appointed suppliers.
