If only 1 supplier expresses interest, ICS will pursue a direct award.\nFor the avoidance, this notice is not a Call for Competition; a Contract Notice will be issued as a call for competition.

We would like the option of MI data, e.g number of vouchers requested, vouchers redeemed and vouchers remaining, with the option to redistribute unredeemed/cancelled vouchers if possible.\nThe process for staff redeeming the vouchers should be clear and simple to the requester.\nThe E-vouchers should be able to be redeemed at a local pharmacy across UK sites typically within a 5-mile radius of office locations which are:\nLONDON\t26 Whitehall\tLondon SW1H\nLONDON\tOAB Annex\tOld Admiralty Building, London\nCARDIFF 2\tTy William Morgan\t6 Central Square, Cardiff, CF10 1EP\nBELFAST\tErskine House\t20-32 Chichester House, Belfast BT1 4GF\nLONDON\t100PS\t100 Parliament Street\nLONDON\t10 Victoria Street\t10 Victoria Street, London\nGLASGOW\t \t1 Atlantic Square, Glasgow, G2 8NJ\nABERDEEN\tAB1\tAB1, Crimon Place, Aberdeen, AB10 1BJ\nSHEFFIELD\t \t1 St Paul's Place, Sheffield, S1 2NB\nYORK\tFoss House\tYork\nNOTTINGHAM\tLoxley House \tStation Street, NG2 3NG, \nBRISTOL\t2 Rivergate\t2 Rivergate, Temple Quay, BS1 6EH\nBIRMINGHAM\t23 Stephenson Street\t23 Stephenson Street, Birmingham, B2 4BJ\nBRISTOL\tGlass Wharf\t3 Glass Wharf, Bristol BS2 0EL\nBIRMINGHAM\tVictoria Square House\t1 Pinfold Street, Birmingham B2 4AA\nNEWCASTLE\tCity Gate\tCity Gate, 6th Floor, Gallowgate, NUponT, NE1 4WH\nSALFORD\tTrinity Bridge House \tSalford, M3 5BS\nMANCHESTER\t2 St Peter's Square\tClarendon House, 2 St Peter's Sq, Manchester M2 3AA\nLONDON 2\t22 Whitehall\tLondon SW1H\nCARDIFF 1\tCompanies House\tCrown Way, Cardiff, CF14 3UZ\nEDINBURGH\tQueen Elizabeth House\tSibbald Walk, Edinburgh, EH8\nLONDON\t3-8 Whitehall Place\tLondon SW1H\nLONDON\t55 Whitehall\tLondon SW1H\nCAMBRIDGE\tEastbrook\tShaftesbury Road, Cambridge CB2 8DF\nDARLINGTON\tFeethams House\tDarlington, DL1 5AD\nLONDON\tWhitechapel Building\t10 Whitechapel High St, London E1 8QS\nLEEDS\t \t7&8 Wellington Place, Leeds, LS1 4AP\nBIRMINGHAM\tEdmund Street\t120 Edmund Street, Birmingham B3 2QZ\nDARLINGTON\tBrunswick\tBrunswick St, Darlington DL1 1GB\nMANCHESTER\tManchester\tCentral Retail Park, Great Acolatse St, Manchester M4 6DJ\nABERDEEN\tAB1\tAB1, Crimon Place, Aberdeen, AB10 1BJ\nAs this is an e-voucher system, we would expect an instant turnaround when staff request their voucher, with no later than 24 hours of staff receiving it to their email address and a response to any queries within 48 hours of contacting.\nOur proposed process is as follows: staff members request an e-voucher by entering their chosen email address, either through a link or an online portal. The e-voucher will then be sent to their specified email address within 24 hours. The email will include the voucher itself, along with clear instructions detailing how to redeem it, where it can be used, and the time frame in which it must be redeemed.\nWe are open to alternative methods or processes from the above.\nThe contract and service launch should be in place by 30th September 2026, for the scheme to be open for 6 months each year. We do not anticipate any GDPR of personal information will be required, simply a work email address to send the e-voucher to.\nKey Performance Indicators\nKPI Title\tKPI Description\tKPI Monitoring \nVoucher request timeframe\tReceive e-voucher within 24 hours\t N/A\nQueries & Complaints from staff\tQueries & complaints answered within 48 hours\t N/A\nQueries and Complaints from DESNZ contract managers\tQueries & complaints answered within 48 hours\t N/A\nPayment\nPayments will be made in two stages, in arrears. An initial payment of 20% will be made following successful delivery at the end of the first three months. The remaining 80% of the Year 1 contract value will be paid upon successful completion, once all e-vouchers have been distributed and no balance remains.\nProcurement Plan / Dates and Budget\nIndicative Project budget - £20,000.00 excluding VAT per year\nFinal budget TBC\nIndicative advertising timescales for the Invitation To Tender - Wednesday 10th June - Wednesday1st July 2026. \nIndicative tender live period - 3 weeks\nIndicative Contract start date - 31st August 2026\nIndicative Contract end date - 30th August 2027 (with an option to extend for another 1+1 years). \nTo ensure that this procurement maximises appropriate bidder responses we have the following questions that we would like to pose to interested suppliers:\n1.\tSupplier Capability and Supplier Capacity - \na.\tPlease can you confirm that you would have the relevant skills, capability and capacity to undertake the services detailed?\nb.\tBased on the information provided, please can you advise if you believe that the scope is clear and achievable? \n2.\tProcurement Timescales - \na.\tBased on the timescales for the procurement and services, please can you advise if your organisation would have capacity to provide a bid response and undertake the services within the timescales detailed?\n3.\tProject Scope - \na.\tPlease can you advise if there is any additional information that you would require to ensure you have all the information required to submit a tender response?\nBased on the project detail provided, is it your intention to respond to the Further Competition documentation once issued? \nWe are inviting interested suppliers to respond to the above questions by completing this questionnaire https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/ccX9R85kkq by Wednesday 27th May 2025\nBy responding to the questionnaire, you will be engaging in non-competitive dialogue which will enable ICS to develop and assess the market's appetite, concerns and view on the formulation of its requirements. ICS may consider the information and responses received as part of the questionnaire to help inform the specification and further decision making in relation to the planning and conduct of the procurement, ensuring all valid options are considered. If only 1 supplier expresses interest, ICS will pursue a direct award.\nFor the avoidance, this notice is not a Call for Competition; a Contract Notice will be issued as a call for competition. Not providing a response to the questionnaire shall not prevent any supplier from participating in a future procurement, nor is it intended that any information suppliers as part of the market consultation place any supplier at an advantage in a potential procurement process."
