Court Funds Office Service - Preliminary Market Engagement Series

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) is progressing to the next phase of Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) for the Court Funds Office Service in accordance with Section 16 of the Procurement Act 2023.

Following completion of initial engagement activities undertaken as part of the Delivery Model Assessment, MoJ is issuing this notice commencing a further phase of structured market engagement activities to refine its understanding of the market for the procurement of the Court Funds Office (CFO) service. This phase will focus on validating emerging requirements, testing delivery and commercial assumptions, and gathering targeted supplier feedback to inform procurement strategy and future requirements.

Webinar – Market Engagement Launch

This phase will commence with a supplier webinar taking place on the date below and will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams:

Date: 8th July 2026

Time: 10.30am - 12.00pm

Venue: Online (MS Teams)

The webinar will present the emerging service requirements and the proposed approach to market. The session will act as a broadcast to signal MoJ’s intent and stimulate market interest and appetite. It will provide an overview of the CFO service and update suppliers on progress made since the previous market engagement activity.

The webinar will also prepare the market for subsequent engagement stages and provide visibility of anticipated timelines. Further details, including joining instructions, will be issued via Jaggaer to registered suppliers.

For clarity:

The PQQ is not a procurement Pre-Qualification Questionnaire

It will not be used to assess supplier capability or suitability

It will not be scored, ranked, or used to shortlist suppliers

Participation will not confer any advantage or disadvantage in any future procurement
