Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
We are seeking to establish a new Collections & Recovery Services Framework that supports a redesigned operating model. This framework will be flexible, scalable, and adaptable, enabling innovation and continuous improvement in line with evolving business needs.

The new approach will modernise our debt recovery strategy by:
Introducing early-stage digital collection solutions to reduce default rates
Enabling proactive customer engagement earlier in the recovery journey
Maximising return on investment (ROI) through smarter, data-driven interventions
Suppliers will be expected to demonstrate capability in delivering effective, customer-centric recovery solutions that align with our strategic goals and regulatory obligations.
