The Councils have shared a number of services since 2011, including Revenues and Benefits, Finance; ICT, Building Control, Legal Services and Human Resources. From April 2023, the two Councils now share a Chief Executive, Leadership Team and all services excluding those funded by the Housing Revenue Account.

Some remote work is undertaken by visiting officers from customers' homes or places of work. Having trialled a Hybrid Mail solution within the shared Revenues and Benefits service, the Councils now seek a long-term provider of this service and so provides this opportunity for suitable providers to tender for either or both of the two Lots. ## Lots (2) ### Lot 1: Hybrid Mail - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 72412000, 79571000 - **Delivery regions:** UKG - **Estimated Value:** £400,000 - **Description:** Includes the provision of 'print-ready' output by the Council to the provider.
