What is being bought

An outbound dialler service is required as part of the internal strategy to improve verification rates for customers who cannot be located within the Tax and Benefits system, do not repay SLC directly, or do not respond to requests for information about their circumstances. Customer‑level data will be shared with the external supplier on files to enable outbound contact. To maintain accurate customer account information, repayment systems will be accessible via Citrix, enabling live updates to be made as required.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Collection agency services (79940000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 794,2043 median · 33.7 average (1,129 of 4,204 with a bid count)2.8 average (1,266 of 4,204 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
